[quote=Anonymous]I too think motivation is an issue here. Kids in this country are very fortunate, they have everything they need, but they are not motivated enough to use these facilities. Good school, free transport to school, free meals, free book, free tuition (homework help/ summer school). I have seen kids more busy with thinking what to wear to school daily, really will an uniform help here, or are the uniforms not mandatory for the profit of some companies? I have seen the basic TV programs , but none of them are motivating education, especially the teen programs are all about " friends". At the age where they are supposed to study, kids are busy with maintaining looks because of the peer pressure, making boyfriend/ girlfriends. I do understand everything is important in life, but if the priority of the child in his/ her life is different, why do we blame others? It will helps kids if they are motivated from right age.[/quote]
