Private School Succession saga

It's no news that not a lot of us young geniuses like to teach. Take the NYSC service year for example I could bet you that not a lot of us youth corpers could stand the classroom, and the teaching, the lesson note deadlines, the test deadlines, the exam making and recording. Trustme, it wasn't all that princessy.
This brings me to the order of the day. I was reading the paper last few weeks when this topic caught my eye. It was quite intriguing that there was a dilemma for private school owners over the persons that would succed them after they were gone. Some wanted it to be their children who took the mantle of the private schools while the school administrators thought it should be them in as much as the children wanted nothing to do with education. Let's look at this way from the school administrators who believe they should be part owners of the school as some incentive for all the many years of hardwork so that the proprietor if gone would have left the school in the best hands. We all know that we are human beings and one of the most common things humans have been driven crazy bout from the beginning of time itself is greed. The truth is if some proprietor were to give part ownership of his or her school to an administrator there is a possibility of the administrator turning it into his or her business and making sure that the school never belongs to the proprietor's family again.
It could just be like the parable Jesus said about some landowner who employed laborers to tend his vines but the laborers  became greedy even to the point of killing his only son. It could also go in the direction of the way it happen in Tron: The Legacy when the company's board of directors decided it was more profitable to go against the wishes of the owner of th company.
I'm just saying that in my opinion some School administrator could want to school to his or her family and on some nonsense plea called years of service, he or she owns the school then the owners children be left destitute despite the sweat of the parents.
It could also go the other way around when the children who want nothing to do with eduction take over the school and run the organisation down with misplaced policies. The children may also have this insane idea of them being boss and lack respect for the people who tirelessly make sure the ham is on their tables day by day.
Like the prestigious newspaper concluded which I concur school owners should integrate their children in the school administration and day to day runnings if they intend the children to be successors of the school organisation. Have a Lovely week ahead.
