Jaden Smith Hasn't Properly Learned the Rules of Using Capitalization in Sentences. Nevertheless, the After Earth star, 15 -- the son to Will and Jada, brother to Willow, and boyfriend to Kylie Jenner
-- thinks school is very uncool. Last week, the budding singer and
actor took to Twitter to rant, for some reason, about school,
education, and the general rules of modern society.
"People Use To Ask Me What Do You Wanna Be When You Get Older And I
Would Say What A Stupid Question The Real Question Is What Am I Right
Now," the Karate Kid star began. He continued: "All The Rules In This World Were Made By Someone No Smarter Than You. So Make Your Own."PHOTOS: Will and Jada Pinkett Smith through the years
"School Is The Tool To Brainwash The Youth," he added. "Education Is Rebellion. If Newborn Babies Could Speak They Would Be The Most Intelligent Beings On Planet Earth."
Finally, Smith -- a close pal of Justin Bieber -- declared: If Everybody In The World Dropped Out Of School We Would Have A Much More Intelligent Society . . . Everybody Get Off Your Phones And Go Do What You Actually Wanna Do."

Ironically, Will, 44, and wife Jada, 41, founded their own school, the New Village Leadership Academy,
in Calabasas, Calif. back in 2008. With the Smiths donating millions of
dollars into the private elementary institution -- which employed a
wide range of untraditional educational methodologies -- the academy
shut down last June.
The Smith family was most recently spotted en masse gawking inside the Barclays Center while Lady Gaga
performed the bizarre opening number for the MTV Video Music Awards in
late August. Will has frequently been outspoken about the parenting
philosophy he shares with Jada.

"We respect our children the way we would respect any other person. Things like cleaning up their room. You would never tell a full-grown adult to clean their room, so we don't tell our kids to clean their rooms."
The father-and-son duo recently quelled rumors that Jaden was seeking emancipation. "He is definitely not going anywhere; he is so scared of being out on his own," the Men in Black
star said. "Whip My Hair" singer Willow, 12, meanwhile, is a different
story. "Willow is probably going to be emancipated before Jaden!"
