There is too much pressure on school children.
Since 1984 education has been considered job training.
And the pressure of big business has been applied to school work.
Children as young as two are being pressured to learn.
And secondary school students are constantly told they have to make the grade.
Their reaction can be seen in schoolies' week.
They go wild after their exams because they are under too much pressure.
Pressure creates more bullying and violence.
And some students snap.
The phenomenon of school shootings is relatively recent.
My thesis is that it is related to the increased pressure put on students in schools.
So let them learn Humanities.
Teaching the Humanities will make them more humane.
And violence in schools may decrease.
