text: Having classes on your own time is also beneficial when it comes to health issues and teen parenting. Health issues like cancer is tough and it makes you stay in the hospital for doctors to monitor you 24/7 just to make sure you're doing fine. Maybe others have other health issues and it tends to pull kids from school because you have appointments left and right. This makes it hard for students to learn anything. Another topic can be teen parenting. This topic isn't talked about a lot but it's big. Most students tend to make bad decisions and become parents at a young age, and having a child at a young age is a really big deal. It's not easy going to school and thinking about your child at the same time. Students would want the best for their babies and the best is being with their parents. Child safety is a number one priority and there have been many cases where an abusive babysitter takes the lead. Cases like these never end up looking pretty. Most children end up being beat of abused by a complete stranger and most parents aren't aware of it. Since babies can't talk, this makes it hard to know if the kid is in a safe environment. Some have ended up with death of a child because of all the abuse and beatings. It's much safer for a baby being with their parents and this way, students make time for their child/children and time for learning.
