Haha, well education is one of the most important things that a Government can provide, and, I believe, it is one of the most valuable things that someone can possess.
To miss out on it is awful for the individual and it has a negative effect on the community. So many life skills are picked up at school, as well as knowledge and logic, it's the best defence against ignorance out there.
But to miss out on it because your parents don't see the value in it/can't be bothered to send you to school is, well, one of the worst things that can happen to a child.
