These days a lot of kids start school early. Years ago, everybody began at 5, but now it’s normal to start at 4 – or even younger! Why? One thing is that mums gotta get back to work. Bob Jenkins has studied this and says that early schooling causes stuff like stealing,(воровство) drug(наркомания) abuse etc. He’s right – we should pay mums to stay at home.

These days many children start school at a very young age. Up until the 1990s it was most common to begin at age five, but more recently there have been many cases where school is started at age four or younger (Jenkins (2007). Вплоть до 1990-х годов он был наиболее распространенным для начала в пятилетнем возрасте, но в последнее время было много случаев, когда школа началась в возрасте четырех лет и младше There are many reasons why this might happen; one factor is that it may be necessary for mothers to return to work for financial reasons. Nevertheless, it seems that early schooling may cause social problems such as stealing and drug abuse (Jenkins 2007). Тем не менее, кажется, что раннее приучение может вызвать социальные проблемы, такие как воровство и злоупотребление наркотиками In fact, there is considerable evidence to support the idea of a state subsidy for mothers who stay at home. В действительности, существуют значительные доказательства, чтобы поддержать идею государственной субсидии для матерей, которые остаются дома.
