Standardized Texting


Kids, teens, youg adults, we are not all the same.

Not in our ability to learn nor our in our ability to remember what we've learned.

So why,

Why treat us all the same?

So why,

Why test us as all equals?

So why,

Why act as if every one of our young minds are built exactly the same in their abilities to learn and memorize subjects in school.

Once again I ask,

So why?
