In this way, it’s considered important to think how the culture turns into a vehicle of semi-formation instead of a conductor to the emancipation in the modern children’s education. Trying to make the individual see herself/himself as singular and free, but, being able to build from the commercialization of cultural goods, a blind spirit that conditions to isolation of himself/herself in the world, upon the principal of conformism.
