Do you believe that school systems teach unecessary subjects. In math for example, they choose to not teach things like, managing your checkbooks, finding your balance's, etc. but choose to teach...trigonometry, geometry, graphing, etc. I think school should teach more of life skills, things you will ACTUALLY use in everyday life. Many teachers say "There are careers that use it" yes that is true, but there are also many careers that DONT. I think this should be thought out while making the curriculum, even as im 16 years old, I STILL DO NOT KNOW HOW TO MANAGE A CHECKING ACCOUNT, FIGURE OUT BALANCES ETC! and they wonder why so many teens become in debt, and fail being on their own. opinions?
