Yes. I am for it.
The reason I am for it is that the higher the education level of the people in a country, the better the economy. Countries with citizens lacking in education have fewer resources to offer to companies wanting to locate there, and they don't.

No I do not think that people of age 14 should be allowed to finish school. This is not taking into account individuals but as a whole of 14 years old.
There is a maturing process that is still in place, social skills that are still being learned. Society at this time does not allow 14 years to do much of anything including drive, be employed as a whole, vote, sign a contract.
If a 14 year old is smart enough to finish the requirements of high school then they should begin the college curriculum.

I think they should stay in school. There is nothing more greater than giving kids a good education as it equips them with the most important thing; a great opportunity to starts them off in life to succeed. Everywhere you go for future work or even if you want to achieve something yourself- you will always find your educational upbringing serves you more than you expected it would during your school days. It is a fact.

I'm not exactly sure what you mean... "allowed to finish school" ???
If you mean, "allowed to declare themselves "finished" with school, as in: they have completed their education and will not continue further, I am certainly not at all in favor of that.! A fourteen year old is not nearly adequately prepared to enter the world as a useful citizen when that time finally comes along and there is no substitute for a decent education available in the streets.
Count me "strongly against" for this case.
If your question means exactly what it says, as typed, then I have no problem at all in saying I'm for it... Yes, let them finish their high school education and hopefully move on to college to become the leaders of tomorrow.

Of course, a 14 y/o should stay in school until he or she graduates college. I think that's what civilized people should do.

well if the kid is a genius maybe but for most kids they aren't readdy for the real world . you have to mature and then there is an age limit on when you can get a job 15 for a permit 16 to get a job. sorry to blow your bubble

Yea, I think that they should be allowed to finish school. Because it makes their parents feel better.

Yes, if the kid is exceptionally smart and able to meet all the requirements in school.
