Alan,

My question is simple.

Will a child who is doing, as you call it, creative playing, every, by their
own choice, become employable or be able to go to college or is it normal for a
creative playing child to just not ever want to go to college or do anything
that needs reading, writing, and other basic fundamentally boring skills.
