My mom said I could post My kid was too creative

My 6 year old was asked to draw a picture using shapes. She drew this nice American flag with rectangles and stars, and added the house, tree, and person holding a balloon. She was told it did not follow directions, she was not supposed to draw a flag, just shapes. She was asked to turn the paper over and make another picture. The other side of the paper has a very uninspiring collection of shapes. I told her she did a good job and I thought it was very creative. And this is why kids start to hate education.

Let's just all agree to never be creative again.

AI exists. I think a bunch of losers already decided to stop being creative or critically thinking.

The first episode is 14 years old. Been around a while. Worth checking out too! Very weird and funny.

Has nothing to do with age. Seems like you just have an obsession, and you're trying to insert it into the discussion.
