Do you see school as a right or a privilege? I see it as a privelege. Sure, it helps the overall country to provide free education, but there are many many countries in the world that do not, and many children in poor countries never get a decent education because they are forced to get a job at the age of 7.

^ If you went through life without school you would not only be unable to preform in the working world but also have a hard time fitting in socially. You not only get educated academically in schools but also on how to behave and function in a society. Without school no one will be able to conform and society would be a great big mess.
As far as schools being a right or a previlig. Well you simply have to look at all the other third world countries that have children who would do anything to go to school. I think school is a previlage, not a right. Your parents go to jail if you don't go to school because its a law, not because they are taking your rights away from you. |

Well if you look back in the old days like when girls could not go to school they were still classy and all that and knew how to function in that society. But there mothers usually taught them. But it’s not like everyone running around would be a bunch of dumb maniacs. I think if you get education from your family, like some do and use to or you get the basics. You could learn if you wanted to. If you don't want to learn you arn't going to so it’s a waste of money and time. I think school should be optional, well learn the basics and then it be optional. If you want to learn you don't have to do it in a school, you can from experience, family..ect.. Yes other countries would love education but some kids don't want it and won't learn. Some in those countries to. Not everyone wants to learn, at least from school. |
