So you can be educated and not become a peniless useless moron. Drop out of school and go live in a box if that will make you happy. Then you will learn about what suffering really is.

Because we live in a society that says you must overcome at all costs. So if you have to drag yourself to school even when you are feeling lost, abused, neglected or just plain tired, is the way it is. Best case scenario, one could be educated in the way one feels most comfortable and still learn. Plus most people don't think a child/ teen knows what is right for them and how they really feel about what is going on. A parent should try everything to make a child's schooling right, and if they can't do it, they need to home school, private school or tutoring. Something other than make that child suffer for the sake of education. Of course, children must learn, but at what expense does a parent allow it to continue at the rate the child is suffering.

A quick synopsis would be...
Between the pre-Revolutionary period and the mid-1800s, the power to decide whether, when, and how to educate one’s children lay entirely in the hands of the parents. The first compulsory attendance law was adopted in Massachusetts in 1852. During the next 15 years, no other state followed Massachusetts. But, beginning in 1867, a steady stream of states began adopting compulsory attendance laws and, by 1918, all states had enacted them.
Many factors contributed to this transfer of responsibility from the family unit to the state. Proponents of compulsory attendance hoped that the disparity between the poor and the wealthy would be “leveled.” Some saw compulsory state education as a way of “Americanizing” the great waves of immigrants. Compulsory state education was also seen as a way to improve the situation of children following the passage of laws outlawing child labor.

There is no greater gift than an education. It sounds like you are unhappy with your school or maybe an assignment. Hard work will pay off for you in the future. If something else is going on that is making you unhappy at your school, perhaps you should talk to your parents about it. They love you and would want to help.

Suffer from what? Being in school is actaully the best days of your life. Just wait until you have to work everyday to support a family. Then you will know what I'm talking about.

Children don't have to go to school and suffer. There is always home schooling which is way more efficient anyways. I plan on schooling all my children, there is really no good reason for me to send them to an institution that wants thousands a year just to palm off their ridiculous doctrines to my children.

"Suffer"? If you consider that suffering, then you are very lucky. You have no clue what it really means to suffer. Go to school, do your work and stop whining. We all do it- and those who don't end up being losers working menial jobs and/or being on welfare.
