Edumacation


To be educated means to have a better understanding of the environment around you. Being educated helps you have a better future in making money as well as give you the better opportunity in being successful and even having a chance to better your surroundings. Education does not mean that you are better than a person without unless that person makes it apparent that they have no desire to show edification. Education does not always make you live more responsibly, it really just depends on what and how you were educated. If you were educated in a very strict obedient manor than that later on can turn into being a kind of person who once they get that little breath of freedom they’d rather hyperventilate and go crazy, than maintain a steady breath of what they grew to know. Like said before the responsibilities of an educated person vary on how they were educated and how much they wanted to further their education. A person who was had been raised in a small town school where they got along with everyone they grew up with then they would probably have that inspiration from their families and friends to want to continue their education and make themselves have a great future and support a family. There are also those who were raised to not want to continue their education so they have no responsibilities whatsoever and just live as they please and do what they want, thinking that nothing can catch them. Education is actually based on how one was raised. For example: all my life both sides of my family have always expected me to be the better kid out of all my siblings and cousins, but now that I am older and have the ability to think on my own I’m not so sure that I want to jump into college so quickly because now I have the better understanding of the responsibilities that come with it. I am going to college, there is no doubt about that but I think I’m going to go for what I want to do and expect of me, not what my parents do.

  1. Mickenzie, I agree with you. How you turn out generally comes stems from your background. However, I also think that one can form their own path and choose something their parents didn't. The decision you've made to do what you want to do is a very bold one, and a decision I struggle with myself. It's hard to stray from what your parents expect of you, and props to you for being able to.

  2. I totally agree with this post. If someone is forced to get an education, they may resent that fact and make no use of it because they didn't desire an education in the first place. I don't think an education makes you better either. Some people who are uneducated are not at fault. Their family and environment they are born into may prevent then from getting an education the desire.
