Background

A well sounded education in a peaceful environment is a stepping stone to a good future of a society. Therefore, we can say the foundation and potentiality of economic and socioeconomic of any country is well defined by this.

Discussion

Not everyone receives the reward of education that plays a vital part in their lives. The main reasons as to why this is the case, Is due to the environment the person/individual lives in. For example, when a child is living in conflict and poverty as a major crisis the need for education will be ignored. Children in war torn countries such as Afghanistan where children are constantly under physical and psychological stress due to their schools being destroyed by bombardment and also the killing of their educators. Furthermore, children in war torn countries have a high risk of concern for a pointless education as they don't get a chance to attend school regularly, but they will dapper with educational stress. In this situation all the educators and their students will be whirling in the storms and floods of psychological stress. Education is very emotional and traumatic as it is in Afghanistan, where they suffered through the unfair interference of outsiders in their home country as the Russian did by the name of democracy in 1979–1998. Unfortunately, following 09/11 a new time has set with a new kind of invasion which is going on. We now observe more tragic situation which again external powers are injecting their culture and foreign bodies in Afghanistan. It's obviously drying out the water of our culture.

Conclusions

Where the Culture itself is one of the most important and valuable aspect of life it is a tower of education. Without culture, education would never have been built and so never could be improved.
