Maybe but I spent six years getting my degree, while I worked 45-50 hours a week to support myself. I'm allowed to think it's stupid that five-year-olds get to cape up when they go from kinda to prep.
To me it's ridiculous. Just like when every child in a race gets the same award so as to not make little Jonny feel like he has missed out because he didn't work as hard as Jack who actually came first because he trained five days a week, where Jonny sat on his arse playing Mario Cart instead of running after school like Jack did.
Getting a degree is extremely hard work. And should be celebrated by those who work their arses off to get one, not a five year old child.
I wouldn’t stress over it. A kindergarten graduation certificate isn’t going to be worth squat in the employment market.
However, it does foster the idea of celebrating academic achievements in children, so that’s probably not a bad thing.
In the end, whatever certificate one has, and the value of it, will be assessed by an employer or a professional institution.
