Problem solving and independent study! I am by no means an expert at teaching my children to problem solve, but I will surely try. For our company and the many managers at businesses I work with, this has become a huge problem when hiring. You hire someone and they come into a problem and just get stuck. They are worthless when it comes to doing a job that requires any kind of thought or decision. They don't know how to study and independently search out a solution to the problem, but just get stuck. With nearly all information at the tips of our fingers, this seems like the reverse should be the case, but sadly, it isn't!
