How do you feel about this?

I have noticed since joining YA that there are a lot of people who don't have a lot of education. I find that this is very sad. I do understand some of this is from outher countries and the translation is hard to do. I am talking about the kids with babies who just by asking their question, or answering a question you can tell they are not educated.

It really makes me sad to think that these kids are not getting an education. Then their children will probably go through the same things.

    it's unfortunate, i agree... but that doesn't mean their kids will go the same path.

    and there is more to happiness than education.

    although they may not be the most educated person, they may be talented singers, composers, artists, dancers, problem solvers. they may also be a dedicated parent, a great friend, the light of someone's life.

    educations is a problem in today's society, but there's no need to pity less educated people. they may still live a very wonderful life and may even make great contributions to society.

    if you really want to help, go volunteer at a big sisters club to help some kid get on the right track.

    Source(s): what i think is sad is seeing all the questions titled: am i pretty? rate my picture.. who's hotter, me or my friend?

    this is just like the real world, there are all kinds of people on here. at least this is one place for them to ask the questions that they need. "feeling sad" isn't going to change anything

    I think it's sad that people turn to strangers on the internet for answers and suggestions about their personal lives, especially suicide and other serious stuff, professionals, family members, any close friend, etc should be the one to talk to the person about that.....Yet i still answer these questions....
