Persuasive Essay On Syrian Refugees

Could you imagine a child being denied education? Well I to be can, and most kids in school would RATHER be denied education than go to school. In fact, 20% of kids genuinely considered dropping out. 73% of kids said they don't like school, and considering 63% say they don't like their teachers, to educate Syrian refugees, would mean they probably wouldn’t even enjoy it, which they should.

Considering that the percent of depressed people is around 6.85% and the percent of depressed college kids is 36.4%, really proves my point. So, how will teaching these refugees help them? Well it looks like it won’t! Teaching Syrian refugees will not help them or our economy, which brings me onto my next point, the
