    Yea that only happens because capitalism needs your parents to slave their ass off which can only happen if their kids go to school earlier than their already early starting job

      Generally, I don’t think that applies to high schoolers. They can manage themselves in the morning. We should have their school start last

      America also has some deep structural issues that children aren’t able to get to school by themselves. In Japan, grade school children are able to get to and from school by themselves in most of the country. In America, parents aren’t allowed to leave children unattended, and certainly aren’t allowed to let them go to school alone

        Yea missed the part about high school but those time schedules pretty much sum up my primary school times as well, hence why the reply. high school is a bit of a grey area depending on the country, I agree.
