The Road to Common Sense

By Adi Andreeva

September 6, 2023

If you want to change the entire society, you start at a very early age …If you need an example, here it is:

HOW IS CIVIL SOCIETY EDUCATED IN JAPAN? IT STARTS BACK IN SCHOOL

1. From the first to the 6th grade, the subject "the road to common sense" is taught, from which students learn civilized behavior and common sense!

2. There are no repeat students from first grade to 7th grade because the goal is education and application of principles, not education and information storage!

3. Although the Japanese are considered the richest people in the world, do not hire housekeepers or babysitters to raise children, parents are primarily responsible for the home education of children!

4. Japanese students, daily, for 15 minutes, clean in their schools together with educators, teachers and professors, which leads to the emergence of a modest generation that is attentive to the phenomenon of cleanliness and hygiene!

5. Every Japanese student always has a toothbrush and brushes his teeth after eating, and thus he learns from an early age how to keep himself hygienic!

6. The teachers eat 30 minutes before the students to make sure the food is good and not spoiled because the student is considered the future of the country and must be protected!

7. The garbage man in Japan is known as a "sanitary engineer" and has a salary of $5,000 to $8,000. To fill this position, the applicant must pass the written and oral test!

8. It is forbidden to use the mobile phone in trains, restaurants and public places with closed spaces and the mobile phone must be set to "common sense" mode, which is very important for them!

9. If you go to a Swedish buffet restaurant, you will see that everyone puts as much on their plate as they need, noone wastes the food, and does not leave leftovers on their plates!

10. The average train delay per year is 7 seconds.

Perhaps we all can learn something from this…
