It is no longer recommended to send smart children to regular schools, because the schools are designed to make dumb children feel accepted.
That only applies to USia.

This is the exerpt ffrom an article in Washington Post :
Quote:
In December 2006, a 4-year-old boy in Waco, Tex., was punished with an in-school suspension after a female aide accused him of sexual harassment. According to a television station there, the child had hugged the woman while getting on the bus, and she later complained to administrators at La Vega Primary School that the child had put his face in her chest.
Duh ! This is what you call civilization ? Lone superpower nation of the planet ? Yeah, right.

Medical technology alone would lead me to think things are better. Longer life spans, lower infant mortality rates, higher standards of living also seem better.
It may seem so, but higher living standards lead ho higher levels of consuming, and longer life spans lead to degradation and lowered rates of repopulation. EU and US only grow through immigration nowadays.
