Far before and after school [I Am a Believer In Education]
I personally dropped out of school at age 13, due to circumstances outside of my control at the time. However I continued to educate myself as best I could and continue to do so, and will always. I have several writing-books dedicated to various subjects.
I also hold the belief that learning should be much more ingrained into the everyday lives of children and adults alike, but especially when it comes to children it is structured where a child does nearly all of their learning within school walls, and it is seen as a reward to finish and get to go home and play, etc (Even homework is being phased out)
Instead, I wish people would realize learning is and should be an all day, everyday thing. I don't mean strictly book wise, as all things must be within moderation, but learning can be done in numerous ways.
I do happen to also think children of today are held to far, far lower expectations than they shouls be, but even then we shouldn't expect people to learn in the same ways.
Overall I take my personal education seriously though I have received no formal education passed middle school, and have no desire to change that.
I do wish I could find suitable teachers in certain sacred subjects I cannot learn on my own.
