Excellent idea -

"The gain may also go towards paying for a 'safety' school debenture, as a safety measure, in case everybody else's kids are more brilliant than our Coconut at exam machination. This is so the Coconut can goof-off, play, for a few more years and not have to be fitted for eyeglasses caused by having to study between the ages of 30 months and 5 years."

Instead of goof-off, you mean have a normal, real life instead of turning into a complete nerddy mirthless grind.
