Why some can’t read

The point of school is to educate children for their future, so why is there is a ridiculous amount of high school graduates that can’t even read. Well there are a few things people seem to think is the problem. People think some of the major influences are the parents or the school or just the child themselves.
It might be the parents fault for not pushing there kids to do well in the classes. The parents just don’t care about there kids education and that affects the kids. The children don’t have motivation to do there home work, they want to do fun things and I don’t blame them. That’s where the parents come in and they need to push the kid to do well. Statistics say parents who read to there kids, when the child is young, will help the kid be a better reader in later life. Things like that help the child and make sure he or she reads when they are older.
Another cause of the child being illiterate is the schools just want to pass the kid just to get him threw the classes and get him out. And I have seen it even in my school. They don’t care about the kid they just want to move on and that’s unacceptable. Its there job to educate the children and when they don’t do that the kid loses his ability to succeed at life.
The last reason is the kids themselves, the kid just does not care about his life and thinks “I don’t need to read it’s stupid”. That motivation is just the thing to make sure the kid won’t be a good reader. So if one or all these things are the cause then the effect would be the child might not be able to read very well or at all.
