Education is not just job training.
Education should be directed towards the development of all aspects of a child's humanity.
Not just the mind but the body and the heart.
It is our responsibility to pass on all that we have learned.
Children must be taught the basics.
But they must also be taught to think clearly.
And they must also be taught ethics and compassion.
Otherwise we will be producing heartless, corrupt, and violent individuals who will ruin our world.
And so the Humanities must be taught along with the Sciences.
Especially History so that we do not repeat the mistakes of the past.

These can't and sometimes won't be taught in school. Parents need to do this.
