Here's what einstein thought about school. "It is, in fact, nothing short of a miracle that the modern methods of education have not yet entirely strangled the holy curiosity of inquiry; for this delicate plant, aside from stimulation, stands mainly in need of freedom; without this it goes to wrack and ruin without fail. It is a very grave mistake to think that the enjoyment of seeing and searching can be promoted by means of coercion and a sense of duty."
I'd say it depends on school and parents wether child turns out to be creative or not I was in military school and kids from our school are everywhere (diverse fields)
It depends. I'm not sure all schools are created equal, just like not all teachers and all kids are created equal. I think creativity depends on the individual and their environment.
Absolutely. Every human is meant for other things, some are natural artists, some are natural athletes, some are natural mathematicians etc. etc. and school system makes them all jump through same hoops and doesn't allow them to develop their individuality. even later on, when they get to choose their future profession, the road to that has to do with everything more than the profession itself.

No of course not
Schools are a tool used for your own passion of creativity... no one can stop that but you 😛
Yes, absolutely. Fostering conformity is a stated goal of public education, so it's part of the mission statement.

Schools don't prepare you for work life in the slightest, they narrow your abitions and what you think is possible.
American schools do, I can't speak to other school systems though.
No, there are plenty of options for creative outlets in school.
Schools teach us how to use our creativity to work towards something real. Creativity without education is like a tool without someone to use it.
Don't let school get in the way of ur education. These streets taught me everything
They try to regulate too much. That causes problems.
School for factory workers who should always follow instructions. Kills people's dreams.
No it wasn’t hell knew more of subjects then my teacher did.
For me, it helped me cultivate mine. But I have seen others get their passions killed by it.
Schools didn't stop me, far from it lol
Schools kill souls since cavemen first math class

Schools kill everything.
