Education locks you in a box

The education system we have today forces you to be contained in a box.
The subject matter you are learning is forced upon you by learning 'parrot' fashion and original thought is not allowed.
This produces a person who has passed a multitude of exams but knows little or nothing of how life and the interaction with others works.

How many people with a degree can actually think outside the box when it comes to every day life?

The box teaching system has evolved because of education administrators targets and the students feeling secure and comfortable living in the box. Students moving from school to university have never known the joy of freedom of thought and action. Look back at the people who invented the wheel, created empires, built lives on nothing more than a 'wing and a prayer'. Look back at our forefathers and see how they have caused this wonderful evolution we all now enjoy only to be restricted by THE BOX.
