Misuse of children in politics

"Murdabaad!"
"Jindabaad!"

I heard these and I observed the political protest rally of some party on the streets. I saw red flags being held by each of the participants in that rally. As I observed the rally, at a glance I saw bunch of 'students in uniform' there. After noticing more, I saw that there were more number of students in the mass, than adults. It was a mid of a day. Those students were supposed to be in school but there they were, chanting slogans on the streets. The students literally seemed like they were from primary section. And instead of studying at school, they were on the streets. 

The political men have then own intentions and agendas. What I don't understand is why are those students of primary section taking part in something which they are unknowing about. I was wondering about how much they were educated enough to be knowing about the political matters.

It was a misuse of those students. This kind of use of the students would lead them nowhere. This must should have been thought by the adults -those political men. But no! They were embezzling those students. Education should be the first priority to such students and the adults too being responsible as they should have been, should prioritize education as the primary need for those students, rather than making them chant slogans on the streets on a midday.

In our country, there are many students who want to learn things at school but are deprived because the earthquake demolished their school buildings. There was a system in our country in which the adults, after being educated to a certain level had to go to such rural village and teach the students. The adults should guide the young minds. They should make them learn optimistic things with positive attitudes. But with whatever I saw on the street some days ago, I can hardly vision a bright future with better political leaders in our country. The adult protesters obviously had their own self ends and to create a huge mass they misused the students.

The parents send their children to school in the hope that their children become educated. Instead, the students are taken to such protest, made to hold flags and chant slogans aloud on the streets. Not any civilized society would accept such maltreatment of those clay minded students. I don't mean to say that the students should be restricted from political matters. That's not my point. My argument is, the adults should be aware that education should come first for such students and making them the part of such rally would not do any good, neither to those students nor to the country.
