My friend told me that her daughter ever threaten to sever ties with him because he was jobless and could not afford her materialistic crave as those of other students in class. I perceived her daughter's words were simply a temperament and impulsive remarks out of sudden anger but it dawned on me what has our school educations achieved nowadays? To teach children the power of money? to crave for success to get what they want? how to be calculative and do business? to discredit the less fortunate and look down on the less capable in this society? I feel sad if that is the case because I suspect civic subject which I used to learn in school has probably been taken off as one of the subject in primary school now.
