Calling on parents to educate their children, Tuzan concluded, "Do not neglect education, even if you have to make sacrifices. We cannot turn our backs on them by saying, 'I sent them to school, that's all I can do.'

It is necessary not to give up on this matter and persistently educate children because the conditions require it. My children see the conditions under which I work. I tell them, 'Don't be like me, save your lives by studying.' I will continue breaking stones as long as my health allows, and I will educate my children."
