Too many educational systems encourage the belief that going to the University is a guarantee for a job, which is a lie.

Most parents tell their children this lie, thinking it to be the truth. Maybe there was a time when this was so but not anymore.

If a child is to go to the University, let it be to learn, to understand and to interact. Let exams not be a criteria to judge knowledge but a means to evaluate growth.

I also encourage the Idea of kids learning a skill during school break. Yes, sewing, carpentry, painting, coding, whatever. This skill night just be the difference between an unemployed graduate and an employer of labour.
