Raw LLM Responses

Hello people, I go to a charter school in miami in which Philosophy actually is a core class through grades 6-8. In reality, they actually do give us not only a run through of philosophy, but actually classes upon classes of learning the differences between J.S Mill’s ideas and Bentham’s ideas. In the beginning of middle school they taught us a brief overview of the 5 main branches: Metaphysics, Ethics, Logic, Epistemology, and Aesthetics. They mainly taught Ethics since they said the rest is mostly for when we’re older. We learned about Aristotle’s Virtue Ethics, Kant Categorical Imperative, Utilitarianism,and countless others. And after learning all that, you never actually apply it to life, but you do apply it to the way you think which is what matters in the end. So, I do actually think Philosophy should be core at all schools to implant the idea in kids’ minds that Murder is not okay, Drugs are not okay, treating others poorly isn’t okay, and to always think about situations with a process not only a one-way sort of method of “Uh yeah he took something from me i’m gonna hurt him”. My post might be a little cheesy since i’m only 14, but i do know Philosophy helps me a lot in life and I can apply everywhere to everything, from books to music to movies to EVEN video games. On that note, kids, Philosophy is a great course instead of something like Robotics and should be taken seriously.
