Other factors contributing to a child dropping out of school would include absenteeism. This may be due to not enough family/caregiver interest in what the child is doing. The child may feel like they have too much freedom and are not being challenged enough. As a result, the child may adopt a pessimistic outlook on their future feeling too far behind in their classes to catch up with their cohort.
Safety at school as well as at home are important in a child’s educational development. Physical or mental abuse or disfunctional communication at home may prevent a child from focusing on their homework. They may even be told by a parent/caregiver that they will fail in life. The same goes at school where bullying and peer pressure from friends can distract students and keep them away from their studies; unable to realize their own potential.
Poverty is another factor. This can lead to more health problems at an earlier onset in life. More children may be born out of wedlock and, statistically, someone raised in poverty has a higher probability of living in poverty as an adult.
