Oscar Wilde and Lord Brougham have different ideas about the education system. Wilde states "Education is an admirable thing, but it is well to remember from time to time that nothing that is worth knowing can be taught." This means that education does not teach a person every thing they need to know, a person learns from doing things outside of school. Lord Brougham says "Education makes a people easy to lead, but difficult to drive; easy to govern but impossible to enslave." This means Brougham sees education as the tool, which creates free thinkers. Wilde has a better idea about education because he seems to believe that there are many ways to learn things.

Some parents are very strict and not very understanding, and some parents are easy going and don't care. It would be hard for teachers to know what kind of an accident the student was in, and what the student is feeling after the accident therefore it would be hard to teach the student how to deal with an accident they just have to learn it for themselves. There is no teacher that can tech a person thing that are learn by being taught.

To be a good friend a person has to be there to listen to problems. Not only listening but willing to give advice. The old saying "If all your friends jumped off a cliff would you?" A true friend would say no, because they would be at the bottom, to catch their friends. A true friend wo
