Re: High School Drop Out Kids I always feel tempted to walk up to those kids and ask "What's it like to totally screw up your life, and not know you're doing it?" |

Re: High School Drop Out Kids Exactly, that's what I meant. Yes, it would be simpler to just let them go, but then that leaves a high risk of them becoming criminals, where they'll screw up more than their own lives. Too bad there's no way we can just get rid of them. |
Re: High School Drop Out Kids I believe that, even though they aren't succeeding, children should be kept in school. Perhaps something will sink in. It seems worth it, even if all they learn is addition. |

Re: High School Drop Out Kids Is it a certainty that they will become criminals though? What about children out in the countryside that recieve little to no education? (I'm speaking of children who are seriously out there, in the bush.) |
Re: High School Drop Out Kids Well, the kids that usually don't care about school, or their grades, usually have parents who don't care either, right? The kids are never really taught morals, or proper behavior, they just do what they feel like, when they feel like it. |
Re: High School Drop Out Kids All of that has a firm grounding, yes. But I was inquiring as to the status of country children. These children are very moral and ethical, but the recieve little schooling. However, they do work more around the home and at jobs that other children. I propose that a job, with chores at home, can provide a much better enviroment for morality than school. |
Re: High School Drop Out Kids Well, it's a combination of both that would truly be better then either alone, right? You need school to increase your knowledge, and home to teach you morals and values. A sort of overlooked fact on school is that it teaches you social skills, tolerance, and common sense, as well as conventional education. |
Re: High School Drop Out Kids I wonder what the cost is of keeping a failing student in school is compared to what it costs o keep them in prision. |
