Why I Will Never Send My Son or Daughter to ICSE Schools

This is a page from New Oxford Modern English Class 5 book. This particular title is used by so-called top schools. We know how students of such schools come to school. Of course sitting in the backseat of their parent's car. Now my father had a car too, and later he had two cars. But it never did occur to me or my parents that my brother and we should go to school in the car. We took a bicycle rickshaw, and later we cycled to school. There was a positive side to it too. Whenever I got late for school, I could smear my hands with cycle black oil and say the chain or the brake of my cycle came off!! So while others got punishment because they were stuck in some jam and got late, I could walk off using my cycle as an alibi and also get some sad look ( such a poor fellow look) from the Principal. 

Now coming to this picture. It shows an overcrowded auto rickshaw. There is no parent who does not love or cares for their children. It is not beyond common sense that a parent would only send their children by such a high-risk vehicle in such condition when all their monthly earning had been spent on food, shelter and high tuition fees of private schools. Only in few states like West Bengal some government schools and Ramakrishna Mission schools are well run. But most Indians have to send their child to private run schools, that are a less educational institution and more of a shop! Using suck picture would make the 'rich kids' see the poorer kids as a matter of joke. It dehumanises them to the pain suffered by such poor kids. And I know it as a universal truth that rich kids, who are lavishly brought up and who are dehumanised to the suffering of others, always leads a selfish life. And later in life, they treat their parents as they would do to the children shown in this picture.
