 have difficulty to communicate with other people. They might feel hesitate to communicate with others because of the differences in education level. Illiterates are facing some certain drawbacks, there are two solutions that the government should consider it.
Firstly
, governments should provide financial support to families. Many poor families do not have enough money to bring their children to school, so the authorities should fund more budget for them.
Secondly
, governments need to work with schools to introduce online courses. Young generations nowadays have access to the Internet; so, they can take advantage of e-learning which is a powerful tool that allows individuals to approach higher education. In conclusion, illiterates are not only having less chance to improve their employment, but they are
also
 unable to maintain their social status, so
besides
 allocating more budget to needy families, the government should encourage e-learning which will enable more children to come to digital school.
