[quote=Anonymous]If people were hunters and gatherers or farmers wouldn't they teach their children everything they know about hunting, gathering, and farming? So it's puzzling to me why so many city dwellers fail to teach their children the skills of commerce. Too many parents fail to teach their children at home. Too many parents fail to discuss important topics like ISIS, 2016 elections, science, medicine, etc. with their children. We may not be able to teach our children advanced academics, but we can at least teach them what's important and what they must do to succeed. If you are only talking to your children about sports, fashion, celebrities, and gossip they will not be able to compete in the long-term with those who have been educated at home as well as at school.
