| Message | Council. This limits a person's rights to choose their own path in life, forcing them to stay in full time education, then spitting them out into the world as an adult. We do not support this bill. Patrik Neufeld SGP Chairperson for Education and Culture |

| Message | Herr Neufeld, What limits a person's path in life is being stupid enough to drop out of education. I would rather our children be properly education, in my opinion well past this - probably until they are 21 at the least. Children who do not go to college and university are doomed to languish at the bottom, and to earn menial pay. Rather than embracing laziness and calling it 'freedom', maybe we should push our young people to become flexible, hard-working and intelligent adults. Solange Muller Minister for Education |
