Imagine wasting 5 days of your week. All those 5 days spent on useless skills and mind-boggling work. This is the case for billions of people. 

They are forced to study math, English, history, science, computer science, geography and so much more all in ONE day. 5 days a week. 40 weeks a year. For 14 years. This is not okay and needs to be prevented. We are wasting 14 YEARS of our lives!

Children are suffering from effects only caused by their requirement to go to school! Bullying is increased and not prevented, affecting the younger generations for years to come. Self-esteem and self-worth decrease as children struggle to learn and understand concepts. Education needs to be optional to stop this negative flow.

This time we are saving can be spent preparing for careers we wish to do in the future. The amount of years spent training can be reduced and people can enter the workforce earlier on. Children will also be happier and be able to enjoy what they wish as all people should do. Everyone has the right to leisure and compulsory education prevents this.

Signing this petition will address the issue globally and call world leaders to action.
