It should not be mandatory at all. If they take up working on cars and do not want to get an education, this happened with a kid I once knew and he was successful with it, then good for them. If they fail and have to work at burger king the rest of their lives I am fine with that also. I am fine with state run, but we should switch to a voucher system and make public schools compete.
A sever year old is not going to want to go to school, but that doesn't mean that they know whats best and should be allowed not to go.
