Rowens,
You remind me of my French teacher in 6th grade. The course was a 3 year course, and at the end of each year she showed us a film called The Red Balloon; she said this film would show us the capacity of our ability to perceive metaphor (she said this all in french too, crazy lady). I agree completely, but I honestly dont see the hurt in knowing right away by being taught. Sure you may grow through a lack of understanding, but you may also grow through understanding. Idk there's pros and cons to both I suppose. A non-related event i could see as relatable would be a mechanic who learned by being taught everything and a mechanic who figured it out himself. The mechanic who was taught might know things the other doesnt, the other could figure it out tho. Idk man haha thats a very important point to bring up tho, thanks
