Good day, amazing people of the Hive Blockchain. Welcome back to my blog. It is another edition in the #hivelearners community. I am so delighted to participate in this week's prompt, getting educated.
Education is very important; it helps to shape us and open doors to many opportunities. Anyone who is not educated is missing out. It is very important that everyone should be educated. Education can never be a scam; it will help to equip you. Education is a power tool that is very important.
The education system varies in some countries; in some, everyone is not allowed to pursue their education to the farthest all because of tradition and belief or gender differences, while in some, you can pursue your education to the farthest you can.
A lot has changed in my country’s education system. Gone are those days when education was limited to girls; the only focus was on the male, and they neglected the girls. They thought that training a female was a waste of money. According to them, tradition and belief affected the education system back then. The majority of the Gamy don’t send their female child to school; they see it as a waste of money. They have this belief that every woman’s education ends in the kitchen. In the olden days the females lacked education, and they were illiterate because they didn’t see the four walls of school.
According to my granny, the colonial masters begged her father to train her in school, but the father refused, asking them what is the need of investing in a female child that a man will come and pick tomorrow? All his investment will be wasted. Our ancestors’ mentality was so narrow that they didn’t see any good thing in the female child; they denied them many opportunities because they thought it was a waste of money. That is why the males back then were more educated than the females.
It is really playing a negative effect on our mothers; the majority of them can’t read and write, and they can’t express themselvesin public because they were not educated. The mentality of our fathers then was so narrow.
Last two years in December my aunty came back for Christmas after ten years abroad. My granny couldn’t communicate with the grandchildren. I was the middle woman between my granny and my nephews. Education is very important, and we should never overlook it. Believe me, education can never be a scam.
Currently now the education system in my country has changed; everyone can pursue their education to the farthest they can go, not minding their gender. As far as you are determined and your family has the money to train you in school, your gender can’t be a barrier. I am so glad that our fathers wake up from sleep and realise that both genders can make an impact in the future.
Currently now the female child is taking education more seriously than the male child, and they are smart. They are rising up so fast; in most companies women are the head, and they are doing very well.
Education is no longer for a particular gender; both male and female have equal rights when it comes to education, and they are allowed to pursue their education as far as they can go.
This is my entry on the ongoing content #hivelearners #hl-w178e1 topic of getting education.
