Mere looking at what is happening in the society now, students are also compelled to the decisions of the government. Take the strike action for example.

This is primarily true in developing nations where students have no choice but to accept whatever policy the government decides because they are politically disadvantaged. This is clear right now in some nations.

I agree that students are often victims of circumstances caused by the government. It is a sad reality that this has been the status quo.

It is very cruel for many reasons. I also see unnecessary wars or disputes of a similar nature to waste time and resources for people and the population in general. In addition to the fact that the most innocent are always the ones who lose out.

During the war, there are a lot of victims but students are prone to suffer more from the government's decisions like in this book. Actions should be taken to stop these.

You are 100 percent correct. The pupils are impacted by every decision the government makes, whether directly or indirectly. Although student deaths are not often this horrific, the level of impact they have call for a check on it. This book is merely an illustration of what goes on in contemporary society.

Students are young and vibrant and are very active in the society. This visibility makes them vulnerable. When there is way, they are usually drafted, if there’s a need for a nationwide protest, they are put at the forefront. This makes them visible to different form of attacks.
