I personally think Philosophy should be a class in high school for upper classmen, regardless of it being optional or not. Philosophy offers the ability to freely think critically about the biggest questions in life most people are afraid to answer. Reading the great works of Western and Eastern philosophers would help students find peace and happiness in oneself and with the world around them, and fix the flaws to lead to the most fulfilling life at an important stage in the cycle of life. But in the end, you decide what's best for you, because you know yourself better than anyone else ever could.

  • Yes. Highschool and every other form of pre college education is restrictive on learning and its why kids hate school so much. If kids were allowed to decide for themselves they would be much happier. If you think I'm an idiot and that my suggestion will lead to poorer lives then you have no morality or I need to explain further. Life is something that you experience. If you are not having pleasant experiences in life then why are you living. I would rather be homeless and happy as can be rather than be a billionaire who is depressed because he can't stand his life. If you are allowed to act freely in choosing what you want to do during highschool you will be happier. Kids need a little enlightenment and philosophy could pass on some insight to them on how to think for yourself.
