Smart women , beware!

Whilst all TV nannies preach about positive feedback and ignoring bad behaviour, one of the biggest political parties suggests to do the opposite. The PvdA (social party) wants for higher educated women to pay back for their education when they 'decide not to choose for a job after their education' (students monthly receive a VERY modest amount of money from the government, not even enough to pay the rent AND half of it goes back to the same government in terms of tuition fee). It's supposedly a waste of society's money. I'm at a loss for words, actually!

[Update 14:04 pm]: apparently I'm not the only one who disagrees with this idea.

HHmm even if this was gender agnostic it still wouldn't be good. It would be far better to put in place programs that help students to find out what they are good at & enjoy doing to help in choosing studies that are suited for the individual.As a party member I'm not totally surprised but disappointed.
