I'd quite like to be in charge of education and children (in a non-noncy way)
Instead of SATS, I'd introduce maturity tests.

They wouldn't be incredibly difficult.
It'd just be common sense for the most part, with a few extra things.

Kids that act mature only makes them even more immaute.
Act like a kid when you're a kid and a grown up kid when you're an adult.

Yeah that annoys me a bit when adults tell kids off for being immature.
"Stop acting like a child!"
"But I AM a child!"
But there's childish and there's childish. In some ways, I wish people wouldn't grow up so much.
