You shouldn't be forced to go to school by law.
Forcing kids that don't want to be in school to attend causes:
Bullying
Wasted resources tracking kids
Distracting those who want to learn
@basedbagel education should be privatized, otherwise it’s just glorified daycare.
I'm convinced that the system is fucked like this on purpose to provide shadow welfare in the form of teaching jobs.
@basedbagel yeah fuck the teachers unions, nobody seems to actually care about the kids.
In your typical anime it seems as if kids can just take time off, go home, or just drop out to become NEETs for extended periods of time. I wonder if that's actually true.
I'd like to think that's true but I'm not sure.
At my school kids basically dropped in. They didn't participate and just slide by because they couldn't leave.
It's really a waste of time as research kids could have learned a trade after middle school and been better off
@basedbagel @UncleIroh The school system only cares about pleasing the local and state government, they don’t actually care about teaching kids actual real life skills. Passing kids as opposed to failing them makes the schools appear much better than they actually are, it’s really sad.
It is and it's a shame because there is some real good that can be done.
Back in the day they used to teach trades at the high school level.
Now they pushed it into college, people get married later, you know the drill.
