Persuasive Writing - Why kids shouldn't get paid to go school
I completely disagree with this option because I believe that if you had the option of being paid to attend to school or being paid to study, you would choose the money. However, this is not a good decision, we did not go to school to get paid, rather we went to learn and receive an excellent education. Paying children to attend school may result in tough conditions.
There will be lots of options for you in conditions of jobs, but you'll also learn about the privileges of your role ( if going to University ). Many people may disagree, but I believe we are too young to get paid at this age; if money is more important to you than your education, you will most likely fail high school and would be unable to get into university.
