The public schools of Catalonia are like my bachelor’s attic: they don’t have air conditioning, a moral, metaphysical and technological vacuum that legitimizes me to advise them to do as I do. In other words, hold on.
Since when do kids stop doing something they love because it’s hot or cold?
I’m not advocating that the very braggarts, comedians and indulgents should be roasted on the stake or need to be pickled, but I also don’t see that, when certain temperatures are reached, classes can be suspended to go to “a climate shelter” , I guess it must be the playground, a suitable option to end up in an inflatable pool trying to drown the worthy Vicentet or in a pre-season game.
The reader must have already grasped that my concept of education is unconstitutional, unsustainable and unsupportive and rests on the theory that the more savable adversities the respectable group of boys and girls face, the more chances they will have to understand life and not to end the days waiting for happiness, the one that was promised to them by those who will no longer be there to tell them: and what did you expect?
Like every generation, I am convinced that the children of the 21st century, year 2023, are addicted and overprotected, which is why every day the name of a new trauma appears, that of some psychological risk or the possibility that the heat will fry their brains and the classes must be changed in May or June. And in the summer? That maybe then they will spend the day in places with air conditioning or quiet in the shade of a fig tree?
Nothing can make a child happier than an excuse not to do something he doesn’t like. Such as examining themselves and less in June, when they only think of the holidays, associated with the outdoors, where they will roast in the heat, like any mortal.
That they install Carrier cooling in the classrooms? formidable What do they have to do with air currents? More was lost in Cuba. We just need to prematurely turn them into adults all day distressed by the sky, the temperatures, the negative records and the mother Earth that gave birth to us.
