Forums - Politics Discussion - Education should be about learning not socializing

You can't be an effective worker if you don't know how to socialize. There's nothing else to say on the topic. You're going to be VERY difficult to work with and it's going to hurt you going forward.

When i was an early teen i wasnt able to make friends at school,i really tried but i went to a place where alot of the kids seemed to had some bad parenting about other-coloured people. I was mostly hated for being born the way i am, and that situation did put me into a social depressing hell which took me years to overcome.
Another school luckily did fix this problem for me and i was finally able to make lots of friend to get confident about myself again.
But yeah be happy you somewhere do have the choice to get friends if you want, even if it takes being irritated by their attitudes from time to time.
If you really dislike most of them then i suggest to try to join some other social circle with people you DO like .

Good luck :)




Being a good fit. You may hear that phrase being tossed around when it comes to hiring potential employees. The ability to get along with your co-workers. I personally know several situations where someone wasn't hired for a job (that they were totally qualified for) because they weren't a good fit. Without adequate social skills, you will find that the positions you are a good fit for is considerably smaller.



I don't want to be rude, but this is the first time I've seen someone think this way..

I have aspergers myself, and i can agree with you in alot of points, and i agree here, but i think alot of people in school want to socialize,meet friends, have someone to talk to, it might get easier to get through school with friends.  Thats how i see it, and i think alot of other see like that aswell

Nope.



If you don't learn how to socialize at school you may not have a chance to learn anywhere else really. I had a hard time with it for a long time and i guess i was kinda lucky to find the right people after a while.
Also socializing is not about pleasing people or ending up in any clique hierarchy if you find the right people.

It's a duty.

For the most part 1) They are not adding anything to my life. 2) It's almost a duty-a rite of passage-to be socializing with people who are either negative or annoying. 3) At least in college, I don't know how that helps me grow as a person. 4) I should have chosen a more fitting school for myself where I could have find more like-minded people. Its terrible how in my school there's not even an "Anime Club." I had to create it myself.

I know there are adults out there who are thinking "Why is this kid bitching about his school? Take action!" If you don't like it then transfer. However, what will benefit me in the long term is more important than my personal feelings.

1.than you dont know th right people

2. what about dont talking to them?

3. sitting around with friends, talking, drinking beer, playing games, that helps you grow alot.

4. whats a club?



This is a scary way of thinking, by the way. If you have no connections to any human beings, then it is difficult to value human life. This may be slippery slope, but it may not be, which is what makes your way of thinking scary.

It should be about both, IMO.
