Text Sue what you think!

School taught us lessons we didn’t even realize we were absorbing—and they’re still messing with us today.

Most of us didn’t realize it while we were sitting in classrooms—but school was teaching us a lot more than math and grammar. It was shaping how we see ourselves, how we parent, and even how we value creativity and curiosity.

In this episode, we’re digging into 3 hidden “lessons” school taught us that still show up in our lives every day:

  1. Follow directions. Don’t ask questions.
  2. Creativity only counts if it looks like everyone else’s.
  3. If you don’t fit the mold, you’re the problem.

These aren’t just school rules—they’re a kind of brainwashing we carry long after graduation. You may not even realize how much this is creeping into your parenting—but it’s probably at the heart of why you’re doubting yourself so much.
