Some families are having issues sending their children to school, why? In this cruel world, everyone else’s mind is talking about money. What about the families that do not even have enough money for food? How are they supposed to afford to send their kids to school? Let’s say if the kids are going to government school, there are still some hidden fees like “electrical fees, examination fees and etc.” If families can afford spending their income on all these extra hidden fees, why don’t they just send their kids to international school?!

Now forget about that issue and focus on this, school often have issues like bullying, sexual harassment or violence, no matter for boys or girls. Teachers should pay more attention to issues like these than spending more time on the “rich” or “smart” students.

    I think there will be always be issues of class difference affecting educational systems,besides that I will borrow words from Karl Marx,Poleteriate vs Bougoursie,Oppressed vs Oppressor,Victim vs Perpetrator! If we acknowledge the fact that in some countries economic freedom should be fought for before every family can be able to take their kids to school. Coming to the issue of teachers neglecting the poor of under privileged kids its just a pure disregard and lack of respect to the human race. I still think we need to revolutionize the teaching career so that the kids be in safe hands!

    The thing is there is so much status difference these days.... The ones who are rich getting richer day by day and the problems of the poor people getting worse. Even it is difficult for the poor people to get proper treatment of diseases... And since they donot live in good conditions they have to face the problem more... So when they don't have money for basic necessities... How come they will send their children to school...

    Well, the world is changing and we cannot stop that. when it comes to education, it is more important than money because with education, one can be employed to work in the future, while if uneducated, he/she could suffer for the rest of his/her life, begging for money in the street. Bullying, sexual harassment and violence? i've gone through every single one but i'm still here. those are just stages of life where you get experience to build up yourself.
