Some 264 million school-age children and young people worldwide were not in education in 2015, the United Nations Education and Culture Agency UNESCO said on Tuesday. The agency, in a progress report on the UN’s development goals for education, said that after a decline in the early 2000s, out-of-school rates have started to stagnate. “Worldwide, there was a completion rate of 83 per cent for primary educat ion, falling to 45 per cent for upper secondary schooling,’’ the agency said. The agency meanwhile quoted household survey data from 128 countries for the 2010 to 2017 period.

This is not meant to hurt anyone or pinpoint on someone for their upbringing. Its a general message targeted to all the parents of today. 1. Going to your child's school dressed indecently? Think again. 2. Speaking rashly to your child's teacher. 3. Cursing, using foul words or swearing in front of your children. 4.Using makeup on children. 5.Dressing with tight clothes and indecently for children (they loose the sense of their princesshood and may not listen to you in future) 7. Your child holds the cup or glassware by the brim and you don't make a correction. 8. Your children don't greet and you just feel they will come around one day because they have a mood swing. (You will be blamed for it) 9. Your children eat with their mouth opened and you feel they will grow up some day. 10. Your children brought home something you did not buy for them and you said nothing. (That is the beginning of stealing)
