Think for Yourself

If we continue to censor ideas and stifle open discussion, then children are deprived of the opportunity to grow intellectually. Our future relies on our ability to think critically and hold meaningful conversations with each other. Therefore, a brighter future for our children through education starts with open dialogue and discussion.

Censorship practices have implications beyond the classroom, as they can also lead to a lack of diversity in creative industries. When certain ideas are silenced, it stops people from contributing valuable insight into their industry. The result is an immersive environment that fails to recognize potential talent or perspectives from different backgrounds. In order to compete in the global economy, we need to empower our citizens with an education system that allows for critical thinking and open dialogue.


It is time to put an end to censorship practices and create a society that encourages free expression and meaningful conversations. We must start by treating classrooms as platforms for learning and growth instead of political battlegrounds. We must recognize that mistakes will be made, but it is important to use those opportunities as a platform for learning as opposed to silencing one another.


Children are no longer thinking for themselves, and this is evidenced by the outrageous trends that go viral on social media platforms like TikTok. While these videos are often entertaining and humorous, they lack substance and reinforce this idea in our younger generations that it's much easier to follow what everyone else is doing rather than think critically or come up with their own original thoughts.



This is concerning because it means that children are no longer being encouraged to think for themselves and develop their own opinions in the classrooms. Instead, they're letting the media, left-wing activists, and social media influencers do the thinking for them, which can have far-reaching consequences on our society in terms of critical thinking and problem-solving skills.


We are in a bad place when our future generations depend on external stimuli to develop new ideas. Parents, teachers, and other adults in our communities must take the initiative of teaching children how to think for themselves by engaging in meaningful conversations and teaching them how to critically evaluate information. This is the only way we can ensure a brighter future for our children and society as a whole.


By ending censorship practices and encouraging meaningful conversations, we can create a society where everyone has a chance to realize their potential through education. We owe it to our children to create an open environment where ideas can be shared without fear of being silenced. Only then can we ensure that our society has a brighter future for generations to come.


Ultimately, a society that incorporates best practices and wants a brighter future for its children through education needs to stop these radical censorship practices and start having open discussions. Allowing free expression and open dialogue in classrooms is the first step to helping empower future generations and create a better world. We owe it to our children to provide them with an education system that encourages critical thinking, open dialogue, and meaningful conversations without fear of consequence. Let's take this opportunity for a brighter tomorrow for all of us.
