As Dan said, "financial literacy" is a TOP priority to teach our children in school.
I respectfully disagree. Its important but it doesn't belong in a yeshiva. A yeshiva isn't business school.
You'll ask me so why is it worse than math science...? I'll answer that those don't take away from the goal of a frum person. They're there for various reasons. To give more structure to the day of a child. To make the child sharper. And possibly also to qualify for government funding.
That's just my feelings about it.
ETA: Just to clarify a little. I feel like the math, science... isn't being taught to learn it. It's being taught for the reasons stated above. On the other hand if you're teaching financial literacy it's being taught for itself. Which I think is a problem.
