Why We Should Not Be Taught In School

The purpose of public education is to educate children and prepare them for adulthood. However, it should not be mandatory. Although a lot of the skills taught in school are useful, it is should not be the government's choice to make for millions of children. The reasons that children do not want to attend school could fill an entire page. However, one main reason is that they are placed in a judgemental atmosphere with strict deadlines, and basing their intelligence on their ability to read, write and solve equations. Students who have social anxiety and forced to talk for a grade. People who would like to pursue a life in art or writing are forced to listen to teachers talking for hours about useless information that may not help them in the future and vise versa.
However, the basic subjects should not be taught in a public school. It is likely that is private schools did not cost money, a lot of students would be attending them instead. However, for some students, it is not an option. One similarity between the two however is that they both expect their students to stay in school for seven hours, then do sometimes hours of homework, continue to maintain their social life and take care of themselves. Not surprisingly, this leaves little room for much else that students enjoy doing. Rather than actual subjects, school teaches students how to text and eat in class without getting caught, and that grades are more important than their physical and emotional health. American public schools believe that standardized tests and homework will make their students smarter, while some of the most successful schools worldwide get rid of both and end up giving their students a better education
