Summary/Abstract: In our country, education is no longer a value, but rather something mandatory, the responsibility for which is being transferred between parents, teachers and the government. The victims are the youth of the nation. The main goal of this study is to determine the importance of education for our children. Jacob Bronowski once wrote: “Science is based on human values, but is also a value by itself.” Are we going to take this great value away from the generations of tomorrow? In order to preserve education as a value, we have to demonstrate with our behavior that it is a part of our values. If this happens, the teacher by himself/herself would be a value, respected by the students and the whole society.
