"Educated Out of Creativity"

Not everyone is cut out for the business world. Some are meant to entertain through forms of dance, music, and drama. A person does not have to be a CEO of a major company in order to be a multimillionaire. Just look at people Brad Pitt, Taylor, and Wade Robson. All of three of these people are known and make millions for their art form and millions more people appreciate them for it. So why is it that so many people can succeed in the artistic industry, yet society still crushes the desires of so many saying that they do not stand a chance at making a living without having the kind of intellect that can receive college degrees?

Sir Ken Robinson pointed out in this video that it takes more than just literacy to stimulate a child's mind. However, many educators and parents do not know how to nurture children that use the creative side of their brains as outlet. Instead they are told that there is something wrong with them for not having book smarts. A child who could have been the next top musician is torn down just to fit the mold that society had created about what it takes to be successful. Creativity can be used by many, but instead people are discouraged and are being "educated out of creativity."
