2. Children should be taught from 5 how to garden, maths taught with little shops to learn about how to pay, count and divide or multiply. They at a higher age should be taught how to tile, sew, build, etc. Practical 1st aid, how to look after animals and land. No one is a failure or judged. If They become interested in a specific profession, after experiencing Al these practical building blocks, they can then move on to what they would love to do. Western education disempowers everybody. Maybe that is why the super rich bankers etc encourage education. Education means you learn something. We are all taught to rely on getting a job one day. Times have changed. You have to use your skills to be an entrepreneur and build technical schools. They can learn reading by the things they sell in their little shops. They can make things and bake and sell in their communities. Then their income in their control. The present system empowers very few and teaches nothing.

3. You are perfectly correct. A trade or skill is more important. You become self reliant. The Western way of educating does not empower anyone
