Most of the men believe in school, but some of them are becoming less and less interested in it. What can we plan for our children’s future?

Time has come to know that education is not the work of the only teachers. Many parents think that it is sufficient to write the child’s name at school and dress him up. Some students believe that going to school is just going to theater. In class they talk, laugh, and tease each other. Outside the classroom, they spend most of their time listening to music, dancing, drinking tea, smoking cigarettes or manipulating their cellular telephones. They never do well at school.
