who the hell thought it would be a good idea to shove a bunch of kids of the same age into a room for most of the day and let them figure out social interactions from *other kids their age*?? For like, *all* of childhood and teenage years? What the fuck are we doing

I think that holds true for private schools but at the public level, I think the justification is more about the need for childcare created by the modern econ . Like, I need someone to watch my kid while i'm at work and if they learn something in the process, that'd be cool.

Right, but people don't tell themselves "I can't watch my kid so I subject them to moderated Lord of the Flies." You tell me what your story is. Generally the assumption is that it's going to work out well for the kid.
