university education

Why is education important?
What are the details that make it important?

1. Reportedly, college graduates make 100% higher pay than
   high school graduates.
   
2. Brain power every day is becoming far more important
   than brawn power, even in blue collar jobs. For example,
   auto mechanics need to read and interpret manuals and
   computer printouts. To do this they need more schooling
   than mechanics of the past.
   
3. Increased schooling develops verbal skills, which are
   important in general, and, especially, in managerial
   positions.
   
4. Attending college or university helps one perform the
   day to day tasks of life more effectively, like locating
   the right doctor, searching for a good investment, finding
   a new job, or working out family challenges.
   
5. Education is important because it helps one develop new
   interests in life that may be entertaining or allow one to enter
   a new occupation.
   
6. Education is important because it leads to more job
   opportunities and a wider choice of jobs. Therefore, it is
   correlated with job satisfaction.
   

Warning! Education by itself may be used for good or bad purposes.
The determining factor is heart, the heart of you, the parent.
When I say heart, I mean heart as in heart and soul, as in heart in
the right place

So there are some answers to the question, why is education
important. However, there is another answer to the question,
why is education important. Education is important when it can
maintain or even engender your interest in learning because
then you will automatically become a lifelong learner.

Good parenting can help improve a child's school success.
However, first, a parent must understand what education
is. Another way of saying it: A parent must understand
just what is happening to his child when that child is in
school. If the school is forced to emphasize boring, rote
learning in its program, a parent needs to know this is the
case in order to aid her child.
