You’re onto something here. The missing piece is people are forgetting knowledge is transferable and they keep putting all these things into boxes that have to be checked off without looking at the big picture. Kids can grasp concepts.
Teachers are now being expected to teach our children everything under the sun in a very pointed way. Parents are being absolved of all responsibility to teach them anything or to reinforce concepts introduced at school. Take your kids grocery shopping. Tell them how much money there is in the food budget and let them be part of the process. This is the way.
