Most children aren't data-driven.

I’m not sure if you mean the decision to have the kid for most kids was not data driven, or if you mean most high schoolers are not receptive to data when making decisions.

If the former, then I would say that is changing and see plummeting fertility rates in developed countries as proof.

If latter, then yes, teenagers can be extra prone to making non data driven decisions due to various reasons, but the hope is maybe it can instruct them in the future if not today?

Most people aren’t data-driven.

Parents, teachers, guidance counselors etc are also part of the problem.
