Turnout in elections is growing which is a good sign but it is still very small. Over fifty percent is not a good result because it means that almost half of Poles did not vote. I can not understand why such a large number of people did not participate in the elections, it looks as if they were not interested in what is happening in the country where they live. Each of us, through choices, to a lesser or greater extent decides and influences what is happening in our country, if we have such a privilege, why we can not take advantage of it.

    The turnout in Poland is regularly one of the lowest in Europe. There are different explanations but the most common ones include our obsessive lack of trust in other people, politicians included, and very low engagement in social life (family and friends are all we care about). And these have roots in our history.

Would you like to turn vegetarian? Why?

-
I would like to become a vegetarian for moral and ethical reasons. People kill innocent and defenseless animals to satisfy their own needs, they are really selfish, they feel a stronger species, so they started to rule over the weaker species, just because animals have no voice and can not defend themselves. People decide about the life of other animals, decide which animals are to eat and which to love and live in the house. People totally and without any scruples subjugated the lives of animals without thinking that animals are also living creatures and have the right to life.

What does it mean to be a real man?

-
There are a lot of stereotypes in our world about the characteristics and behaviors of men. From an early age they are perceived as strong, confident and almost without feelings, but being a real man is a lot of different character traits. A real man, of course, should be strong but at the same time he should be responsible, honest, helpful, resourceful, intelligent, caring and supportive.  He should defend his relatives. He is aware of what he is doing and doesn't run away from problems, he helps to find in a difficult situation. He is always truthful and honest.

Does school prepare us for life?

-
In my opinion school doesn't prepare us for adult life. The school teaches only a piece of knowledge from various fields of science, most of which won't be needed in adult life anyway and we will never use it. There is a long list of skills that we should acquire at school and which will be much needed in life, for example "motivating oneself to act". Apparently, school grades should motivate us at school, but it's just the opposite, they more often demotivate us. At school, we should learn to organize our work, our school duties should teach us organization but it is not. Most students don't know and can't  plan their time well. It is very important in life to deal with stress in difficult situations, school doesn't teach it, and as it already tries, these are activities that don't help. Assessments and competition between students cause an increase in stress that not everyone can manage.  School should teach us how to work in a group and communic...
