Do you believe that education is a means to address criminality? email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 89/100. alena824 (328)3 months ago

I was browsing through a forum where the topic was education in Africa. The poster expressed the belief that criminality can be addressed if the population is educated. I wholeheartedly agree. An informed mind is better able to make decisions and weigh the consequences of any action he or she may take. And an educated mind will channel his knowledge and energies to something more constructive than committing a crime for which he will be punished if caught.

However, it is unfortunate that in many parts of the world, education does not seem to be a right, especially for young children. Poverty is often the root of this because governments are not able to provide a free but quality educational system that will allow the younger population to go to school. Children must be well informed, aside from harnessing their skills and talents. And the more they are given the opportunity to learn, the less they are likely to do wrong.

I agree with you. I believe education is the answer to many of the worlds problems. Sadly, this in itself is a catch-22.

When people are informed they make decisions based more on fact, than personal opinion. They have a realistic idea of what "reality" actually is, and have a better chance of acting in accordance with reality.

When people are not educated and demonstrate these negative traits, I cannot believe it is solely because that is their desire. Maybe they just never learned better. Or maybe we never learned to understand the complexity of the world we have created around us...

But I agree...

I just think exactly the reverse.

Do you know the guys who attacked on world trade center were highly educated.

I do not think that education can addresses criminality .

I believe that criminals are not made they are born .

Education I think is more to do with theory part of life on the other hand criminalism is something to do with practicality .

But when I was young I used to think that education can address crimnality but I dont think that now.

Thanks
Ganesh

Well education might help but the fact that there are criminals everywhere at all levels. How many CEO's or politicians are caught doing something illegal and they are educated. In the city of where I live the mayor stole from the Little League for personal use. The county supervisor was found to be doing the same thing, taking money from the county for personal use. Yes higher education is always something that is needed everywhere but an evil mind is found at all levels. You can be poor and be decent. I was taking a class today at school and it stated that laws were made up by religious and moral groups in society. Some laws had nothing to with morals but most did. I think society just has no morals at times.

It can be addressed with the education as well. However the main part needs to be focused on mentality, human being's behaviour and some other, important things as well.
Good afternoon, Dear Friend,

To a certain extent, yes education does help to address criminality.However there is also a catch to that.Extremely highly educated people may also end up commiting crimes,an example is a hacker, someone who has extremely good knowledge and wits better then a programmer.Thus he is able to hack into networks which is a crime so as to speak
