I think that is a good law. Dropping out really harms kids chances of succeeding.
knowledge: Since 1989 education has been seen as a basic human right for a child, article 28, of the Convention on the Rights of the Child states that: primary education should be free and compulsory while different forms of secondary education, including general and vocational education, should be available and accessible to every child.
response: Hmm perhaps.  It's been considered a child's basic human right, to be educated, since 1989.

As it should be. I like how the end of secondary education coincides with the age of majority in the US.

No I didn't.   You told me most countries kids have to stay in until age 16.  Are there countries that require more than that?
knowledge: Compulsory education sometimes extends to age 19.
response: Oh yes, it can be compulsory up until age 19 sometimes.
