    Basic life skills: How to fill out a W-4. How to file your taxes. A practical knowledge of Consumer Credit. Basic personal finance and budgeting.

    It baffles me that schools don't cover these things with every student, as a part of their curriculum.

      to build on that...

      How to change a tire. How to perform basic first aid. How to grow plants.

        First aid, definitely, as well as nutrition and health. Some schools offer health classes, but "some" isn't "all".
