American kids are always picked on as the stupid ones. Great idea! Lets make a sweeping generalization and blow this way out of proportion. American kids are not stupid, kids in general are stupid. Every country has its intelligent people and its unintelligent people. I'll admit that I get sickened when I proofread a person's paper and it's filled with grammatical errors, non-academic tone, slang and misspellings, but it's not just American kids that do that. Almost all of my high school friends are in universities across the state of California, the rest of the country and even other countries. One went to Oxford, one went to Yale, and another went to Cornell. My high school was a public school as well. We had 16 valedictorians simply because their GPAs couldn't get any higher.
America's next generation isn't doomed to a life of ignorance as all these people from other countries seem to think. I'm sure you have completely stupid people in your countries as well. I don't appreciate being stereotyped as an idiot by others simply because I'm from America. If you come to this country, you'll find many intelligent people with interesting things to say who live successful lives. No country is perfect or has a population made up entirely of geniuses. Stop talking down on a country you've never been to and people you've never met.
People get offended by the truth, remember.
