Goal Of Educating Kids
What is the goal/Mission of Educating Kids?
Key/meta answer: everyone gets to pick their own, just like the Meaning Of Life. But

- some answers are better than others.
Some pages to see:
We want our kids to end up as young adults capable of Making A Living (esp after Economic Transition to New Economy), understanding the universe, dealing appropriately/adaptively with their fellow humans, and being responsible citizens of an Open Society. Grow a Remarkable Life. Be More Fully Human, not a NPC. We want to be Raising Reality Hackers with Agency in the ill-structured real world!
