You bring up some good points, especially about real skills, like cooking, shop classes, tax returns, checkbook or account balancing. More...most of these things were taught by parents or grandparents, uncles, aunts, older cousins, neighbors, friends. Modern Society, if it should be called "society" seems to remove interpersonal interactions from people. So the key is to interact!

Now I noticed you wrote about Eid...today was Palm Sunday, the day Jesus rode into Jerusalem upon a colt of an Ass and the people waved Palm fronds recognizing Him as King. And then there was the last supper. The betrayal by Judas of the twelve.

I have noticed the similarity between Islam(Eid), Christianity(Lent), and Judaism(Purim). Although as Jerry Seinfeld as Jewish comedian would say, "All you have to do as a Jew is not eat for one day and all your sins are forgiven. Christians pay retail for sin!" I guess Muslims do too.

No really, the dissolution of the family is insanity and total control by the state is what leads to slavery. Without families and religion, a terrible future might come upon the world.

So, interact and change the world.
