        Classic review of a creative child who's bored to death in a classroom. So familiar to many creative people.

        My kindergarden teacher said I'd do well in life if I could just not socialize so much. Socializing was the foundation of my work life. Like this teacher ⬆️she meant well but got it totally wrong!

        Funny; my oldest son got a similar "review" in grade school: he was "social at inappropriate times." That has been the key to his success in life!

        It was probably an elective option that he didn't take that term.
