Education Catching Up

#1 Postby Janice » Sun Mar 26, 2006 9:08 am

With the influx of millions of illegals and the fact that our schools are in great need of improvement, what do you see the future of our country? Education in other countries, China, Japan, Europe and India for example is a must and priority. It shows. What happens if we don't educate our children better and we find down the road that they are left behind in the work and world working fields. In 20-50 years, there will not be enough educated people to fill higher jobs in the US, will outsoursing be the solution? Soon the minorities will be the majority and we need to get these minorities educated fast.

Being in the field of Education I agree somewhat but also think that it also starts at home. Today some children know they can act out and get away with it because the parents don't care. It is really a sad situation because some of these kids these days know they can get away with things at school and the parents never know or they don't care. I know there are some teachers that need to retire because their hearts are no longer in it for the right reason but there are some teachers that give their heart and plus more to get through to some of these children. It is heartbreaken when you have a student who could do something with their lives but they are missing it up for themselves through their actions.
