Education is a fundamental pillar. Some argue that it is essential for younger generations, while others feel turning grown-ups into literate should be prioritized. I think that, despite  education being of paramount importance for youth to shape their future, some investment in the latter would be beneficial.  

To commence with, primary and secondary education is the cornerstone for ensuring a literate and prosperous next generation,  and should be emphasized so that the students can gain immensely. This will allow them to progress phenomenally, in terms of  developing a positive outlook towards due to better personality that sans superstition and in embedded with 

well-informed perspective, and also are  able to gain well-compensated employment, to help afford themselves comfortable lifestyles.  For instance, undeniably,  young learners need financial stability after completing their studies so that they can satisfy their requirements. Hence, it is vital for them to be allocated higher priority in terms of fostering their scholastic abilities.

On the other hand, there are many who want to study, but financial constraints impeded their endeavors,  and most are unable to attend formal tuitions when young, but their progress as grown-ups is curtailed by lack of appropriate academic qualifications, so  policy makers should encourage funding for such individuals so that they can foster critical traits pivotal to success of professional undertakings. To exemplify, in multiple provinces, the Indian government is conducting different study projects for those hailing from marginalized sections, so that they can ensure earning appropriate income.  

In conclusion, promoting education at all levels is crucial for an all-round development, so all sectors, age-wise, of demography should be allocated appropriate resources, to make sure society derives rich returns from educational policies.

Education plays a major role in society for all age groups, but of late, some have been proposing prioritizing educating disadvantaged grown-ups rather than youngsters. This statement can, however, be challenged on various grounds.  

It is important to invest into spreading illiteracy among adults. This could help them to attain their diverse objectives, and assist them in improving their earnings. It has been observed that a colossal ratio of the adult population, especially in poor countries, is either lacking education or does not possess skills that can fetch their money to make their ends meet, forcing them to survive in extremely poor conditions. This can have a long lasting impact on society as poor economic conditions could push these people to either depend on government support, raising public expenditure astronomically, or compel their young ones to engage in child labor. Thus, laying emphasis on providing them with education would aid them in getting their children and also contributing to the economy of the country. 

Having said that, there is skepticism about this proposal. It is believed that even though educating adults is important, juvenile education cannot be demoted to a lower pedestal. Youngsters are the future of society and preparing them to be literate holds paramount importance: it will create a future potential for effective participation in economic activities in various strategic economic sectors, and also create room for innovation, besides facilitating capability to face and surmount challenges arising in the future.

In hindsight, I fail to  concur completely with this suggestion since, although it is necessary to spread literacy among the adult citizens, educating children cannot take a back seat; it will surely hamper the future prospects of progress. Thus, equal priorities to both categories should be allotted.
