People often confuse school with getting an education. Yes, school is important, but why education is important is so much more obvious. School is difficult and can work both ways. Unfortunately, the complex environment that is a school does not provide the same experience for all students. Teachers handle a number of students in infinitely different ways, benefiting some students more than others. Education happens more often outside of school than inside.

In fact, most of your education comes outside of school. This can be basic and specific things, such as, crossing the street or cooking an omelet. However, it is more importantly things like how to behave in a room full of strangers, and other “unwritten” rules and practices. This is not something you pick up in a book; this is the sort of education that happens in childhood as you learn how to behave. Without education, we would never learn how to get along in our society and function as normal adults.

In fact, this is why education is important from the parents. Parents are single-handedly, and by a wide margin, the most influential people in a person’s life for roughly the first 12 years of his or her life. For this reason, it is crucial that parents provide the essentials, food, shelter, etc., but also the education children need to become adults. Children must learn how to think, care, and develop a good work ethic from their parents. These are of the same importance as food and shelter.

Sadly, not all parents seem to agree that this is why education is important. They trump on and on about getting a good education, as if it was something out there somewhere. It’s not. A good education begins at home, where parents teach their children to work hard, think smart, and be compassionate human beings. This is the most important educational system of all.
