Upvoted... beautifully articulated. I am a teacher and I always find opportunities to teach the little one she some financial literacy.
Many of them refuse to learn that as they are so conditioned to rely on something when it comes to thinking.
But I have not given up :)
Teachers deserve so much more respect from society than I see them getting, and more pay too for that matter. Thank you for what you do, and great to hear you are trying to teach the kids some actual life skills that aren't nicely encompassed in the standard curriculum!
The standard curriculum is toxic, and I often feel guilty for having to present it. But I teach them skills for life every opportunity I get. Mostly the kids love and respect me. But I am disrespected by the school executives and those above.
