Why is education important?
Parents know education is important for a child's success in life. Exactly, why is education important?
What are the details that make it important?

Reportedly, college graduates make 100% higher pay than
high school graduates.

Brain power every day is becoming far more important
than brawn power, even in blue collar jobs. For example,
auto mechanics need to read and interpret manuals and
computer printouts. To do this they need more schooling
than mechanics of the past.

Increased schooling develops verbal skills, which are
important in general, and, especially, in managerial
positions.

Attending college or university helps one perform the
day to day tasks of life more effectively, like locating
the right doctor, searching for a good investment, finding
a new job, or working out family challenges.

Education is important because it helps one develop new
interests in life that may be entertaining or allow one to enter
a new occupation.

Education is important because it leads to more job
opportunities and a wider choice of jobs. Therefore, it is
correlated with job satisfaction.

Warning! Education by itself may be used for good or bad purposes.
The determining factor is heart, the heart of you, the parent.
When I say heart, I mean heart as in heart and soul, as in heart in
the right place.
Why Is Education Important?


Average person is not Extra ordinary. Most of the people in this site and their children are more or less in upper percentile. They need that education.
 
You are so right, but I was forced to start this thread to counter the thread

Which glorifies people who never got formal education.
formal education has its negative points

many times education makes people worthless to earn a living

education is often initiative killing , far removed from building capabilities to earn a living

there are lakhs of graduates, PGs , engineers who are fresh or with minimal experience fo whom there are no takers

they have no better off than uneducated . slum kids with no education would make a living if thrown on the roads but educated will starve to death. our education system is not job oriented.

most not so well off would be better off learning some skills instead of going for univ. degrees.

in retrospect i feel I have wasted 7 to 8 years in top notch univ and got degrees which are useless papers I can feed donkeys .they can get a meal out of it

The talents I have developed for wealth generation is self taught and I made most of my money after retirement

with a small seed capital and not using any textbook.
