It is a truth of nature that every living being takes care to teach its young one the basic things of sustenance, like how to find food and protect itself from danger, before it is left to fend for itself. We, humans bestowed with rational thinking, want to do much more for our offspring. But it is disheartening to see our educated youth being unable to face the challenges in life and stand on their own. Is it not mainly because of the fact that we fail to inculcate a work culture in them? The school and the educators' responsibilities do not end at ensuring that their students secure high scores in examination but it is also their duty to enable them to look at life with a sense of purpose and achievement In other words, the very aim of education should be to prepare the learner for life.
