Everything has two sides, positive and negative. Usually we tend to look at the positive side of education, which is important, but there are also negative effects of education, which we don’t think too often. Not that we should see education as a bad thing but we should definitely consider the way we educate ourselves. Everybody wants to have their children a better life and career, but not everyone can afford this. Parents support their kids in getting education the way no one does, they are the one who won’t be jealous if you’d be successful. So we should never let our parents down in any way, instead thank them for what they did to help us getting education and make our lives better.

I am aware of the fact that not all the people have to suffer through these things because who doesn’t want to get education and still remain in culture and family? But it doesn’t always happen this way. Things change, people change. The way we live and where we live does affect us in some way.
