　　Education has always been the most experienced profession and industry in the world, anddiscussions on it have always found a new angle. Receiving full-time education prior to adulthood (18 years old as a general practice) is held as truth, which this essay almost fully roots for.

　　It is true that continuous schooling before 18 years old benefits learners and their families. In reality, education helps as much the growth of professional skills as the development of character, both of which will most likely bring material life comforts and higher life purposes. Consequently, with personal development guaranteed, domestic situations—be they of the families individuals are from or will create—will be bettered in due course.

　　It is also true that countries and governments will benefit from national talents. The young are the future, and thus are paid attention to by means of education. Without knowledge and skills, which are likely acquired at schools at different levels, the prospects of national advances arein jeopardy. Thus, lasting education for young people is of necessity.

　　However, it would not be nitpicking to state that a dozen years of education sometimes might seem only wishful. With regional differences within a country or beyond boarders, certain families are still stricken by starvation, warfare, or poverty, and their younger generation are forced out of the luxury of education at all, let alone a continuous one before the beginning of adulthood. Globally, it is not rare that children or teenagers are willingly joining the labour force to sustain family economy, or are helplessly enlisted in military forces.

　　In sum, the statement in question shows goodwill that might be shattered by reality.
