Kat Stevens said:By the way, I'll say it again, intelligence and education are irrelevant to each other. So, by the way, are education and maturity.
CHIMO, Kat
How can you say that education doesn't play any part in maturing? Learning is maturing, and bettering one's self. I will agree that in some cases people who haven't gone throught the full high school program have matured quickly, because of the need to grow up fast so a job can be attained to support one's self for example. But I do not at all believe that a grade 10 to 11 student at this current day and age is mature enough to handle all of the responsibilities of being in the CF. (that being said there are exceptions and I 100% will agree that these exceptions to the rule are some of the greatest soldiers to be churned out by any battle school.) But by going to schools every day as a recruiter you begin to notice the difference in maturity between a 16 year old applying and an 18 year old applying. Along with the questions they ask, and the way they percieve the CF.
