I was going to put this in School but since it turned into a debate in my English class, I figured it would turn into one here as well.


My professor brought this up yesterday. He sent us some articles to read. One here & the other here. Those of you in high school, what do you think they should be teaching you? And those of you who are out of high school, what do you wish they taught you? A lot of people said finance for sure. And anything credit related as well. Social skills also came up. With texting & all that, some kids don't even know how to form complete sentences anymore. Some guy in my class said that he thinks our parents should be teach us these things instead of schools. I dk. I was going to say some other things but they slipped my mind :(



So, DEBATE!


Oh wait, here's a list of possibilites:
  • Credit
  • Finance
  • Environmental
  • Compositing
  • Relationships
  • Parenting
  • CPR
  • Meditation
  • Social class
  • How to read financial terminology / contracts
