I will definately say yes. In my state in the U.S., teenagers have to go to school until they are atleast 16 years old. They are talking about raising that up to 18 and from what I understand, there are states that make them stay in school already til that age. I feel this totally gets in the way of many teenager's making progress. For example, Dave Thomas was a high school drop out and ended up founding Wendy's and being a very rich man. (Not that I think fast food is a good thing but it is a nice treat every now and then) The point is that he was very successful and didn't need high school to 'make it'. By the time a teen enters high school, he should already know how to read, write, and do math and algebra problems. That is more than enough to 'make it' in the world. Teenage men could go on and become apprentices or work in factories and the women could do what they were made to do which is get married, have babies, and take care of the house - without the useless teaching.
