If I could upvote this twice I would. The basis for our childrens' education is missing statistics and finance/economics.

My kids' school does teaches basic consumer protection and critical thinking "how to spot ads/scams"

Teaching those should be the foundation on which we teach other things.

Thanks.

I agree on extending the point past statistics. When we talk a lot about schooling tha should prepare kids for the world, that talk is usually directed at work-ready type skills. Coding, resume writing, etc.

We really need to update our fundamentals, near the epistemological level.
