I agree. We paid our kids allowance for doing chores at a young age and made them take money for tithe, taxes and savings before spending anything. That continued when they got older and worked for my construction business till they graduated high school. Not one of them have asked us for a dime and a couple of them have more in savings than I do right now
You know financial literacy is as important as breathing air for anyone wanting to live well. It's the failing of both parents and school system if kids do not learn this.
For sure. But the schools don't want to turn out smart individuals who can think and reason for themselves. A few slip through but for the most part not

That's true. I am so glad you taught your kids well. What a wonderful dad.
