No Child Is to Be Left Without an Education
“Should the father fail in his duty he must be compelled to discharge his responsibility, and should he be unable to comply, let the House of Justice take over the education of the children; in no case is a child to be left without an education.”
O ye who have peace of soul! Among the divine Texts as
set forth in the Most Holy Book and also in other Tablets is this: it
is incumbent upon the father and mother to train their children both
in good conduct and the study of books; study, that is, to the degree
required, so that no child, whether girl or boy, will remain
illiterate.

Should the father fail in his duty he must be compelled
to discharge his responsibility, and should he be unable to comply,
let the House of Justice take over the education of the children; in
no case is a child to be left without an education. This is one of
the stringent and inescapable commandments to neglect which would
draw down the wrathful indignation of Almighty God.
