If you have not met me - this is what I look and sound like.
In this short video I talk about why the more innovative children do so badly at school. They don't fit into a culture of obedience. I talk about how on PEI, where I know many of the entrepreneurs few did well at school. Many did not even graduate. But many had help - from older entrepreneurs.
Is your son or daughter one of those that do not fit in to school? Mine were.
They are not "bad" kids. They are in fact our best hope. My advice - help them to connect with others who have been though this. One way they can do this is to join a co working space. Here is the link to a global directory. These exist in many cities. On PEI there is the Queen Street Commons. Link Here.
Co working sites are full of entrepreneurs. They are the embodiment of the real new networked economy. They are not expensive and welcome the young. Once a member in one, you can get a pass to visit others all over the world.
The new New World is reaching out to your kids.
