Jaden Smith Promotes Dropping Out of School

Jaden Smith Hasn't Properly Learned the Rules of Using Capitalization in Sentences. Nevertheless, the After Earth star, 15 -- the son to Will and Jada, brother to Willow, and boyfriend to Kylie Jenner -- thinks school is very uncool. Last week, the budding singer and actor took to Twitter to rant, for some reason, about school, education, and the general rules of modern society.

"People Use To Ask Me What Do You Wanna Be When You Get Older And I Would Say What A Stupid Question The Real Question Is What Am I Right Now," the Karate Kid star began. He continued: "All The Rules In This World Were Made By Someone No Smarter Than You. So Make Your Own."

"School Is The Tool To Brainwash The Youth," he added. "Education Is Rebellion. If Newborn Babies Could Speak They Would Be The Most Intelligent Beings On Planet Earth."

Finally, Smith -- a close pal of Justin Bieber -- declared: If Everybody In The World Dropped Out Of School We Would Have A Much More Intelligent Society . . . Everybody Get Off Your Phones And Go Do What You Actually Wanna Do."

Ironically, Will, 44, and wife Jada, 41, founded their own school, the New Village Leadership Academy, in Calabasas, Calif. back in 2008. With the Smiths donating millions of dollars into the private elementary institution -- which employed a wide range of untraditional educational methodologies -- the academy shut down last June.

The Smith family was most recently spotted en masse gawking inside the Barclays Center while Lady Gaga performed the bizarre opening number for the MTV Video Music Awards in late August. Will has frequently been outspoken about the parenting philosophy he shares with Jada.

"I think that, specifically in African American households, the idea coming out of slavery, there's a concept of your children being property and that was a major part that Jada and I realized with our kids," he told Haute Living magazine recently. "We respect our children the way we would respect any other person. Things like cleaning up their room. You would never tell a full-grown adult to clean their room, so we don't tell our kids to clean their rooms."

The father-and-son duo recently quelled rumors that Jaden was seeking emancipation. "He is definitely not going anywhere; he is so scared of being out on his own," the Men in Black star said. "Whip My Hair" singer Willow, 12, meanwhile, is a different story. "Willow is probably going to be emancipated before Jaden!"

Who the? What the? What does this have to do with Jaden?

Justin Bieber is friends with Jaden, like it was mentioned below. Also, JB is being a really bad role model. I'm not hating on him. It's just my theory. Sorry to annoy you :(

This is why celebrities should not be parents. What is this bullcrap?

 

Yeah, school sucks, kid, but you're going to kind of need it in order to get anywhere in life (most of the time). If you or your parents weren't so rich and famous, maybe you'd understand that.

Oh he says stupid. He's right but we have to do it and being famous is not an excuse

Yeah, I kind of have this love-hate relationship with school. I hate how we have to go to it to learn stuff that we're probably going to forget anyway, but you still need to at least get through high school (or pass your GED) in order to get a decent job. So...yay school?

I wouldn't say dropping out of school gets you nowhere, it's gotten maybe 5 brilliant pepole (Bill Gates for example) to be successful. But the point is, unless you have a mind-breaking idea, stay in school :P

Emphasis on most of the time:rolleyes:

 

You do have a point, though. (Mark Zuckerberg dropped out of Harvard, created this thing called Facebook, and now look where he is. :P)
