When I left High School I realized everything that was taught to me, I only used about 25% in the real world. When I officially learned how to do taxes I was 21 years old, I never knew anything about creating resumes, given there are some courses that teach this, it should be mandatory. The list goes on and on. There are more things kids should learn about in High School besides Adolf Hitler and The Pharaohs I'm not asking to pave the way for our young, but at least we can get them ready and on the right path to understand what is really out there.
It's time to face facts, alot of parents just don't care anymore. So I say, if we add these (side courses) if you will, in certain classes we can at least give them a head start on what lies ahead.
