i think education is needed for sure
i just think you should have the freedom to the things you actually wanna learn instead of being forced to learn something you're not interested
all the basic stuff should be learned that's normal like:

-> basic math is a must have if you don't know math it'll be very hard to live in most society's also it's usefull

-> english even in countrys that don't speak it should learn it, it's a easy language to learn and it gets used in the majority of countrys

-> history is somethig you should know especially of the country you live in

-> learning how to do your taxes is also a must have

-> self care, it's important to take care of your body

-> Basic anatomy, you should know how your body works

that's all i could sum up right now but i do think education is needed but the way it's going right now isn't really good

Even as simple as all that, most American school systems do *offer* all of those, but unfortunately, a lot of kids nowadays won't want to learn that. As of now, in 2018, I've seen so many kids get easily swayed by media. The internet now offers kids so much more, in terms of entertainment, and for sure they will prefer some sort of visual entertainment than like reading a book or something.

There are a few that will actually want to learn a lot of things from books and whatnot, but overall, I'd say the majority will choose temporary entertainment over long term.
