It`s not that we don`t really need education. We do need education. But we don`t need tyranny at schools! We need respect, not insult.I think that`s what Pink Floyd is tryin` to say. We all human beings have free will and it shouldn`t be killed from the start - childhood. Because of the fact that my school was like that, i hated studying and it prevented me from my personal developing( I became indifferent towards everything). Though I study at the college now and like it. but, still...

I remember bitterly how i was being beaten by teachers at school, in my childhood(one of them pushed my head to hit the wall - it was a long time ago, but still hurts...). Most of the teachers at school were pricks and liked too insult children both physically and emotionally(well, it was in my country, at least). I hated school, though i had good grades(cause my parents forced my to study). And I`ll never forgive to the teachers what they were doing. though they were part of the machine too.
