Description:Excerpt from Work of School Chldren During Out-of-School HoursTable 4 (p. 27) summarizes the children's reasons for desmng to leave. Of the number who expressed a desire, 405, or 34 per cent, gave for their reason that they did not like school. About the same number, 446, or 38 per cent, said that they wished to earn money, and 257, or 22 per cent, wished to learn a trade. There were 69, or 6 per cent, who had other reasons. Those who desire to leave so that they may earn money or learn a trade make up 60 per cent of the total. It is interesting to note that 60 per cent are anxious to go to work. Another astonishing feature of this investigation is that 32 per cent of the children who desire to leave school frankly admit to their teacher that they do not like school. Undoubtedly, there are others who, rather than make such an admission, give other reasons when at heart they are dissatisfied. The desire on the part of school children to work and to earn money and their general dis satisfaction with persent conditions should be considered in any effort toward re adjustment.In Table 5 (p. 27) are shown the reasons for leaving as expressed by those who undoubtedly will leave. These reasons, as contrasted with those. Given in the preceding table, are determined by the teach ers from personal knowledge of the home conditions and fron con sultation with the children. A direct examination of home condi tions possibly would have given more accurate results, but the statements made by parents often are less dependable than those made by children. Parents, from a sense of pride, are inclined to magnify the family income. On the other hand, where parents are anxious to take their children from school, they are likely to minimize their income to justify their actions.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
