What a school cannot teach?

As soon as we grow old our parents start telling us ,"Son/Daughter,I think Ivy League will be the best for you" or if you are from India then  "Son,You should go to an IIT".Being from an IIT,i do understand how good these schools are and realize the importance of going to Ivy League also but I think instead of just focussing on being a IITian /Ivy League graduate ,parents should also strive to make their kids compassionate and honest .

I came across lot of people in life who went to Ivy Leagues. They were really smart people but i think some of them had the basic qualities of a good human being lagging like compassion ,love for mankind ,respect for women and honesty.

So for parents of tomorrow my humble request will be- to bring up kids who can not only think about and for themselves but also the larger good of the community and make the world a better place to live in.

All i want to say is there are other things also  which are as important as being successful in life.Its "YOU" who matter at the end not your degrees.
