Summer vacation is school was invented for exploiting children as a labor source...
Yeah, because if the crops didn't get harvested they could just go buy groceries at the store? WTH are you talking about?
@AnneWimsey Cheaper than hiring labor wasn't it?... Take them out of school about the 5th grade so they can work on the farm full time...
@Lizard_of_Ahaz I grew up on a third-generation working dairy farm in southern New England.
@AnneWimsey Most of the time this wasn't the case as well as leaving children undereducated and forced into farming or low wage jobs. Today it is ridiculous to continue this "tradition" because there is far too much for children to learn we need year round schooling because there is far too much for children to learn so they can live better more productive lives. Year round schooling would have the additional benefit of increasing the pay for school teachers so they could make a living wage.
