What’s more harrowing than sending your child to school? Maybe getting stuck on a city bus that can’t drop below 50 miles per hour or it will explode, but that’s about it. Once your kid hits school age, you have to decide (if you’re lucky) between public and private education, vet the teachers, and neurotically worry about whether they’re learning enough and are socializing effectively. For seven hours a day, someone who’s practically a stranger is responsible for the wellbeing of one of the most important people in your life.
It’s a stressful situation, but maybe it would be less so if your kid’s teacher was a humanoid robot.
