What we teach our kids matters less than how they learn. We give them so many instructions, it drives me crazy. In the real world, uncertainty doesn't come with emanual. Get more involved and understand what really is happening in your child's school. Ask them questions about whell do they understand why their learning this thi try to find out a bit more before just jumping up. The concept of unlearning is one that i bang on a bit about as well, because it may be even more important, these days, than learning.
