Currently and generally, students across the country are not required to start school until age 6 or 7 when they enter first grade, and they are not required to stay and graduate high school past age 16. Many legislators want to change that to require all children enter public kindergarten by age 5 and mandate no one may quit and drop out until age 18. Some legislators and even former presidents want that age lowered to entering preschool by 4 years of age. Understandably, this invasion of personal rights has people upset. A mother in one state, who wants to homeschool her children, says, "Our state is listed as 50th in the country for public school performance, so I will teach my own, thank you."     Legislators should focus on "quality" and not "quantity." Making children stay in school longer will not make them smarter or more skilled, but changing the curriculum to include more creative lessons and activities will. Thirteen years is an awfully long time to be completing worksheets and taking standardized tests, which is all that most schools offer.     Of course, at the heart of all this is money. Everyone knows that schools receive government funding based on their average daily attendance (ADA). What better way to line the coffers of administration than by forcing student attendance to expand the ADA? It's time that people who care begin to force legislators to expand quality education and not lengthen the school years.19Which sentence from the passage best demonstrates an exaggerated claim? A.
