If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Yes, happening. Empathy and morals (which are party sort of systemized empathy) do develop. Needs time and good relationship circumstances though. I'm in outdoor pedagogy and I'm pretty sure kids make a lot of progress with some help here and there.
School as both the no 1 pedagogical field and an institution of selection and disciplination (hello competition, hello human market) isn't a great place to progress in that.
Yup, and time is the issue here. My kids are way better than their peers IMO, and my kids' teachers have said as much (not sure if they're just buttering me up though). But they're still amoral little jerks a lot of the time. They'll get there eventually, but my point is to not rely on that and instead mitigate the worst of it while their moral compass is getting calibrated.
That sounds good and healthy to me. It's definetly part of any pedagocial role to mitigate the worst. I mean I strongly advocate for hope in the good in kids and teach/allow them to make this world a better place than we managed to so far, responsibility and all kinds of compasses. But surely they are idiots and need to rely on us mitigating that!
