[quote=Anonymous]Honestly OP the world is changing so rapidly we don't know what kinds of skills will be needed. Obviously great critical thinking/reading/writing and arithmetic skills will get anyone ahead but beyond that the future especially with automation means skills that we developed may not be as in demand. As long as you provide your kids with a solid education, teach them a great deal about how to manage/budget time on social media and provide a relatively happy environment they will probably do just fine. FWIW ours are teens and each have a passion outside of school which has made a world of difference for them. That's great your kids have wide interests. Exposure to new things may lead to a passion(s). Also, some kids are late bloomers and you can never underestimate hard work and grit's contributions to success.[/quote]
