In our 'modern' society, kids go through a complex schooling education that will 'prepare' them for their further life. The students are categorized and selected by their grades. The better performing ones get the good job and the better education. Sometimes, those that get good grades are rewarded, their education costs less, or in some cases it's free! And what do children learn? When they become mature individuals (by that I mean able to reproduce) they do not know how to provide for themselves. They cannot defend themselves and all they have seen in their life, all the knowledge they have is from a room full of desks and chairs. Toss these kids in the wild and they will die in matter of days.
