This is about the U.S. based on the article and you are talking about how school works in a completely different country. In the U.S., middle school is a step between elementary and high school for kids age 12-14 who are too mature for elementary school but not mature enough to be treated with real responsibility yet.
Expecting a child, and they are children, to go out and earn a living at 14 is ridiculous. Especially when it will be a horrible entry-level low-skill miserable job that will just make them unhappy.
No child abandonment is illegal. Surrendering your child is legal if done a certain amount of time after birth. Thanks for admitting you know nothing about these laws though.

Bollox, I was working from about 13 to put some dough in my pocket as my parents weren’t exactly rich. Didn’t do me any harm.
I was abandoned by my parents, didn’t do me any harm. Guess child abandonment should be legal according to your logic.
I mean, it is right? Kids get taken into care all the time.
