On the test, the question of teaching our children religion in schools appeared. I strongly feel that teaching religion in school is not okay, however I'm torn in my answer because I also strongly think our society (the worlds) needs to teach MORALITY to our children in school! Why is it our systems are made to educate the pre-college children on subjects such as math, grammar, and history but leaves out important social and moral teachings such as interpersonal communication and meditation (self-evaluation)?
It seems in the USA we're all set on "go-go-go" and would rather medicate ourselves than look at the problems in our own lives. With both parties usually working in a relationship, thereâs simply no time to sit and reflect on issues we might be having in our lives. Society needs to make time so people can figure out their problems. It should be a fundamental way of life and a requirement for our pre-college youth. There are so many parents (if you can even call them that) who are either completely focused on themselves or simply neglect their children altogether. How much crime could be prevented by teaching our children morality? If it was taught in schools, then we could handout harsher penalties for crime because our society would be well informed of not only the legal implementations of their crimes, but also the moral one's as well and how those actions can affect others. By knowing this information and still choosing to commit criminal activities, criminals could get was due them - "eye for an eye." "Rehabilitation" is more of a joke nowadays anyways.
