School. does it really help you follow your dreams?

hi. i have been attending school for as long as i can remeber. for as long as i can remember my mum and dad have said to me ' study hard, get good grades in school and get a good job and be succsesful'. But in the last few days my eyse have opened... a lot. i realised that school doesnt allow you to follow your dream. It pressures you with tests and deadlines. I have seen freinds break down and crumble because they did not pas a test. As much as school is meant to help i think its doing the opposite. It is robbing people of dreams and creativity, its brain washing. It makes people play it safe and never take a risk. let me ask you this where would mankind be without taking risks? what would have happened if the caveman never came out of the cave? The few who break the norm follow their dream and make it a reallity. i my eyes those poeple are the people who have made something of them selves, they are truley succsesful. thanks for reading
