Children no longer understand the value of education. They are being mesmerized by reality television and believe that success happens overnight and don't see the link between good grades and success until it's too late. Sadly, many are disappointed when confronted with the harsh reality that education is needed now more than ever. Many struggle with unemployment and even homelessness and wish they would have taken school more seriously after it's too late. Having a heart for children and educators (child of two and brother to one), I've decided to be proactive and speak to as many youth as possible about the importance of gaining knowledge to realize their dreams.
What are you doing to help youth realize the importance of education?
Why do you feel kids are focusing less and less on education in a time where it is needed the most?
