i believe the younger a child begins learning the better he or she will develop later in life. There are polls that prove that the younger the child begins learning the better he or she will do in later schooling years - mainly high school. I think its important for all children to get a fair education and to make the best of what they have. Some families cant afford to send their children to a school that charges $1000 a term but no matter what school you go to you should try 100% and give it everything you have. Whats 13 years of your 80+ years of life? its nothing! get a GOOD education and your free for the rest of your life. you have the job you wanted, family, kids. you have everything. sure you finish school at 18-19 then you can party all you like. knuckle down and concentrate while your at school. you can only get one education.
