Finally, a nod to the forgotten adults who deserve the same attention kids get in schools. Literacy isn’t a privilege; it’s a right we should all champion.

Education is important, sure—let’s just not turn this into an excuse for bigger government or more wasted taxpayer cash.

When we lift up adult learners, we build stronger communities from the ground up. A literate nation is a fair nation, plain and simple.

A week to spotlight adult education is a no-brainer—we all benefit when everyone can read the fine print. Let’s hope it’s more than just symbolic.

National Adult Education Week? Fine, but let’s keep the focus on personal responsibility, not endless government handouts.

Adults should want to learn on their own dime, not wait for Congress to create a self-esteem holiday. Skills pay bills, not sympathy.

Adult education isn’t just about books—it’s about breaking the cycle of poverty and giving families the tools to thrive. This week? Let’s turn awareness into real action.
