It seems to me that a lot of people assume we'll all be ok because we're westerners.
That age is basically over. The rest of the world is catching up to the west in every positive metric. We need to be focusing on the fundamentals. In schools, the 3 Rs and job/career skills. In the home, useful morality and principles that will help lead to life success.
Depending on the area, between 50-100% of kids can't pass a standardized math test, yet people are busy trying to turn schools into a place to indoctrinate kids into one ideology or another. We can't afford to waste resources on this crap. We need kids who are bright enough to compete on a global stage.
