The lack of critical thinking, logic, and philosophy - along with the promotion of social, humanity 'sciences' in our education system , has done the young a massive disservice.

Thinking critically and non emotionally, is a tool to be used and honed, just like any other.

Not having these tools given to us in the formative years,(education) it makes for a very 'emotionally driven' perspective in every area of life.

(area's where emotionally driven decisions are not an advantage).

Having to discover these talents later in life without a earlier grounding in them, can be very difficult for some to achieve.
