Education of children

Published November 27, 2015

IN the flat above mine resides a family with three children, but none of them is sent to school.

This family prefers to live in a large house paying far more than what they could afford and let their children grow up uneducated. All day and all night the children play, which is normal for them but isn’t the lack of discipline and study a serious drawback for these children?

I wonder whether they would grow up as responsible adults with this kind of a background?
