Totally right. I think not only we should discuss this subjects much more with children.
There is also, a totally unrelated subject but equally important, which is personal finances.
Our education system should change and include more down to earth lessons, based on circumstances we all face in our lives.
Emotion handling and finance management are probably underrepresented in schools, as far as I know.
Perhaps if these subjects were more actively discussed, we would not see so much people making bad financial decisions and being highly medicated for depressions or similar conditions.
In other words, schools should teach people more about life, and less about office jobs.
The school systems in the states do not do a good job of preparing people for the real world, that's for sure.
I think the school system is designed just for office jobs, it's sad really. We sit all day in school, then all day at work
Yeah, perhaps new ways to reward creativity like this blockchain does could help solve issues like that. The tokenized world as our friend likes to say :P
Both my mom and sister are teachers, I was like: "You two should start doing school lessons on steemit!"... They aren't here, but I still think it's a sweet idea, homeschooling of the future
You should really convince them to join, especially if they have good content to share, which as teachers they should certainly have some.
Ya, hopefully over summer, I've been shilling the site hard, only have a few people that joined, but more are getting worn down hehehe
