I was talking with some friends and came to the realization that here in North America many kids don't have an actual desk in their bedrooms. They're expected to study and do their homework in the living room or dining room.
While in Romania, where I come from, a nice big desk with ample compartments is one of the most important pieces of furniture found in a child's bedroom. Could this be yet another reason that contributes to much a much lower education in American students compared to foreign ones?
What's your opinion, and also, please state where you're from.
