I think when we become an adult or parents, we tend to change many things that we were taught or learn at childhood because we decide at that times that we can make them better.
The best example I can give is that planning the education life of a child, from born to finishing the university. Most parents of 30 years-old were not capable of doing this.
I think a lot of parents are struggling with this now too - just outsourcing it to the governments instead. I think the skills needed for the future, generally will still take the core of what it always was in terms of mental ability, but instead, people are embracing the digital life of not owning skills personally.
