Need For Education

A boy called Bhilai was from Chennai International School. He showed no interest in studying. His unhappy parents told him that it was not a good thing. Bhilai told them that it did not matter to him. All he liked was to day dream and watch his favourite shows on television.

Another boy, Sohit was from Chennai International School too. He liked to study and was intelligent. His parents were proud of him and supported him in all his endeavours. Sohit read a lot of books and was attentive in class. He was good in sports and enjoyed music  too.  He had a lot of friends.

In the month of September, Sohit did not attend his classes. Everybody felt sad for him. His classmates asked the teachers what happened to him. They soon found out that he had no money to pay fees for the term. They requested the principal to let Sohit join school again. Even the teachers had similar thoughts.
Bhilai was amazed at the support that Sohit got from his classmates and teachers. He did not understand why there was a lot of fuss over Sohit's education. He went home that evening and asked his mother why everybody was fussing for Sohit when he could be happily playing at home with no books and classes to bother him.

Bhilai's mother explained to him the need for education. She told him that reading and writing were important. Education helps in exploring different areas of study and identifying an area of interest. She said, " Your future depends on how well you are educated. "

Bhilai pondered over the words of his mother. He took it as an advice and decided to study hard.
The next day he saw Sohit in school and felt happy.
