Let Teenagers Try Adulthood

Botsein assumes that the audience will agree with schooling in getting rid of middle school. As he states "elementary school should begin at age 4 or 5, and that we should entirely abandon the concept of the middle school and junior high school". No I have to disagree with what he thinks, because I beleive you can't have that seperation of age in the same building. Kids might tend to act more inmature or some cases mature, and puts a at risk factor for younger kids being exposed to situations there not ready to deal with. Peer pressure would be off the charts by doing this as well, and sorry to say but I think It would do nothing but make things worse. I would keep schools how they are now though you still have your cliques, and peer pressure it just wouldn't be with older kids having contact with the younger kids, they would all be around the same age group.
