📌 Children's Rights Are Being Taken Away:

Lack of freedom of choice: Students cannot choose what they wish to learn, even if certain subjects or methods do not suit them.
Limited mobility: They must ask for permission for basic needs like using the restroom.
No freedom of expression: Disagreeing with a teacher is often seen as disrespectful, regardless of whether the student is right.
Forced attendance: Students are required to attend classes, even if the material is irrelevant to them.


⚖️ Unequal Education:

Different opportunities: Schools in wealthier areas have modern equipment, while schools in poorer regions have outdated textbooks.
Disregard for skills: Children with creative or artistic talents are often overlooked compared to those excelling in science and math.
Teacher discrimination: Some teachers favor high-performing students and dismiss slower learners.


⏳ Children Face the Same Time Demands as Adults:

6-8 hours of school daily: Students almost work as much as adults, yet also face homework, leaving them with little free time.
Stress and exhaustion: Many students go to school tired due to the overwhelming workload, leading to mental and physical issues in the long run.
No time for self-realization: Students don't have enough time to develop their personal interests or talents.


📚 Teachers Enforce Rules That Restrict Student Rights:

"The bell is for the teacher": Even when the bell rings, students are not allowed to leave the classroom until given permission, restricting their freedom of movement.
"The teacher is always right": Students are often not allowed to voice different opinions, undermining critical thinking and free expression.
No bathroom breaks without permission: Even basic human needs require permission, which is humiliating and unnecessary control over students.
"Questions only with raised hands": Students must ask for permission to speak, limiting self-expression and communication.
Forced uniformity: Every student is forced to learn at the same pace and focus on the same material, regardless of their skills or interests.
