In my view, a person who has good education is richer than a person who may by millioniar but have no education. It is education that makes a person stand respectfully in this world. It is the first duty of every parent to see that if they are bring children in this world, they should be able to give them good education.. If one cannot do this, please don't punish children by brining them in this world. My parents are not in this world today, but me and my two brothers have made respectful place in this world only because they put us in good schools, and we were educated well. Education is everything for children. Do you all agree.

yes i completely agree with you that education is very important but it is not the only thing in life as with education one must have good discipline, behaviour, general knowledge as many say bookish knowledge is not enough to prosper in life...

Yes but if person is educated you can teach him meaning of discipline, behavoiur, general knowledge and he will understand , but an illitrate person will not know what you are talking about.

(Interesting that you add {+} and subtract {-} as opposed to add and find the value for with an equal {=} sign.) You forgot LOVE. Love is the one thing that will make the world better one person at a time. it costs nothing, but is of the greatest value. You can be a person of the lowest IQ, but still make someone's day by sharing your love and passion. As a side note, I wonder if by 'good education', you mean one where you learn to spell and develop grammar skills? The way you speak and write reveals more about you than any haircut, pair of shoes, educational degree, or investment portfolio.

hey hey hey.....don't get me wrong, but today you are able to write this and argue with me so confidently, this itself shows that you can do it because you are educated, and understand things. I agree love is most important thing in life, but to understand depth of love, our minds have to be open and education opens mind. Atleast you agree to that.

Yes i agree with you for sure and if it counts i look for brains before money. My daughter is 5 and will not turn 6 until May and she is in Grade 1 and is doing great. Her Teacher said that her being younger does not effect her at all as she is the top of her class!!

Thank you ronita for your reply. Your agreeing to my discussion itself shows how intelligent you are , and if mother is so intelligent, it is obivious that daughter will be double intelligent and that is what she is.......I am very happy for both of you. God bless all of us. Take Care.
