I hate it when people complain about school.
Like, really? You have to be the most stubborn person on the planet.
I dare you to take a trip to Tanzania, Somalia, Uganda, Congo, Eritea, or even Ethopia in Africa.
48% of children do not complete primary school. Primary school.
The graduation of high school rate where most of you go to school is most likely in the 80's, or maybe even the 90's, right?
In Tanzania, the graduation rate for boys is 24%, while for girls it's 13%.
There are children in Africa who are seventeen years old, and in the process of completing seventh grade.
Families in Africa sell their possessions in order to send their children to school.
Less than 30% of the population of Somalia walks to their five-room school every day, and you won't even drag yourself out of bed to ride the bus to your luxorious and huge school?!
People in Africa would do anything in their power to receive a proper education.
Stop being so stubborn and realize how truly lucky you are.

Lol I agree but some people would argue "We can switch lives" and then they would be less satisfied with their 'new life'

I know. People don't understand how hard children in Africa and their families have to work. Most of them don't even receive a decent education, and here we are complaining about how there's a 90% chance we're going to graduate high school!

Exactly. It just really bothers me how selfish people who receive an adequate education can be.
