Children Shouldnt be droped out of school at the age of 16! Or allowed to sign out of school permitl

Why should a child ever be dropped out of school at the tender age of 16?  For not attending? For any reason! Shouldn’t this be looked at? Shouldn’t parents be held responsible? How is a child ever mature enough to know or truly understand the Consequences for it. Then the government wants to complain, why are so many people on welfare. Why crime rate is out of control! We have to stop any law in any state allows children under the age of 18 to ruin their lives! My son at the age of 16 going on 17 signed his life away at High school to drop him out! It was that simple. He didn’t want to go and so they let him sign on the dotted line to leave permanently. As a mother there was nothing I could do. This isnt right, Help me fight this! For our future in this country
