It is difficult to focus teaching efforts, because there is an endless list of things kids need to know and to learn.  One thing that kids don’t learn early enough is about money and budget and credit and savings and investments, and matters around these issues.  Most people don’t adequately teach their kids about this, and even as kids grow up, they don’t really learn about it until they are deeply in debt and they have to dig themselves out and rebuilt their credit and then they get on the ball. But by then, many years are wasted.  So, what should we be teaching kids? Lets help them with money matters. That will carry a lot of weight.
