[quote="Axolotl"]This is true, but again, I didn't mean knowledge per se, but also other things like responsibility, commitment, criticism, analysis or expression. Yes, this too would probably depend on where you are from but I think you get the idea.


yeah I figured that all in, my prime example in my head is how you could say penis in front of one crowd and get no response but you say penis in front of another crowd and your gonna have to help pick people up off the ground, not saying an inability to not laugh at the word penis is a sign one could not handle larger responsability but it is a variance in social maturity I've seen little kids raise there parents and I've seen the elderly take care of there 40 year old child so in the end we are left with a case by case basis,but in the end I feel a strong individual can teach themselves anything a college could and often better because it is being done out in the world(skilled trades aside, but most of those your prime learning is not in a classroom)
