Ah, Aru-chan.... ^_^ has anyone ever told you that you're a real nice guy... not to pun you with the whole Rock Lee thing ('cuz it does make me think of the nice guy smile XD), but it's true. You really are understanding and kind, and it's really hard to come across people like you, so that makes me appreciate our friendship all the more. I'm really glad to have met you ^_^
Okay, now that I'm done being mushy!--- I guess you may appreciate education a bit more as you grow older compared to when you're young. A lot of the time it's not that you're against the idea of being educated, it's that you're adverse to the idea of being forced to do something, even if it's for your own good. I think that the reason why people hate school when they're young is because they are not given a choice in the matter. But then you wonder... if younger generations aren't educated, then where does that leave our future generations if everyone's turned out to be a bum since when they were young they were too busy thinking that school was "uncool"? Ah, that's an interesting philosophical question, I suppose, that well, perhaps some day in the future I may or may not have the time to investigate. D: As for now, the way I see it, it would be a whole lot better to instead give people a choice and if they are not inclined to go to school, and if they're still not interested, then perhaps we could use the power of persuasion to convince them. If you are given the choice, then you will know that you are doing something because that's what you wanted, not because someone forced you to. Oftentimes it happens that when you're forced to do shit, and then you end up sucking at it, you have the tendency to blame your shortcomings on other people. If you are given a choice, then no one but yourself is responsible for the outcome.
