Over the past few weeks it has been reported that Jaden
Smith, son of celebrities Will and Jada Pinkett Smith, used the social media
cite, twitter, to tweet his thoughts about school and if it were necessary or
not. Some of the things he tweeted were “School Is the Tool to Brainwash the Youth”
and “If Newborn Babies Could Speak They Would Be The Most Intelligent Beings on
Planet Earth.” This has created a lot of
hype because since Jaden is so popular, the media is saying he will most likely
influence at least one of his five million followers.
I find this statement very irresponsible and simple-minded. Mr. Jaden Smith
happens to be a very lucky human being since his parents are A-list actors; he
was born with connections, money and potential to do almost anything he
wanted. How does he know his fan base is
the same way? The fact is that he doesn’t
and they most likely don’t have half of the opportunities he was born with, so
school is the only option. Up until this
past year Jaden and his sister, Willow, were going to a private school founded
by none other than, his parents. The school
was based off of scientology beliefs and closed so the children could be
home-schooled to work on their music and acting career. My biggest criticism for Jaden is that he is
very closed-minded only thinking of his beliefs, not what is available to the
rest of the world.
