Beside teaching young people to read, write and know how to count, our school should also teach kids how to live.
Let me explain, as far as I know, I don’t believe there’s one single country on earth in which we teach young people how to plan their personal lives, but teaching such things as picking a life partners vs. living alone, the responsibility of having children or the benefits of having none, the cost of divorce, the challenge of family life or the burden of a solitary existence.
There's also the choice of a meaningful and enjoyable career and picking a place to live that is good and pleasant, all contributing to making the difference between a life well lived or missing out big...
Why don’t we act on it? Just think about it and let’s discuss that important topic sooner than later!
