It teaches you that you don't just get to do that things you are good at and enjoy, which is an important life lesson.


Aren't you going to learn that eventually, out of necessity? But hey, this way you get to start hating the school (including the interesting parts - if there are any left) and you might also get the (incorrect) impression that the only reason you need to do things you don't enjoy is because some assholes decided that you must. Great life lesson.


I think pretty much every child learns that lesson way before they even enter school.
