Footnote

c In the past, our publications have discouraged Christians from obtaining certain types of additional education. For example, the article “Parents​—What Future Do You Want for Your Children?” published in the October 1, 2005, issue of The Watchtower commented on the dangers associated with higher education. While these dangers still exist, deciding whether to obtain additional education is a personal matter. Each Christian​—and in the case of young children, each family head—​should prayerfully consider Bible principles and the unique factors involved with a certain educational program before making a decision. No Christian​—including elders​—should judge a fellow Christian’s personal decision on this matter.​—Jas. 4:12.
