For example, are less people today not taught how to change a tire? It seems like kids today are less likely to try to figure out something. Instead they quickly call on their parents or someone who knows how to do it.

Most of them.

It has been this way for the past 10,000 years though, so I see no reason to believe it will change.

Respect for those who sign their pay checks. Too many youngsters want everything on their terms.

Tracking a gut shot deer. How to handle a 4 wheel drive in the mud. How to hold a hammer. How to make the best choice given competing options.

How whining doesn't help get the job done.

Cursive writing


In this day and age, it's totally not needed. I haven't written in cursive in years. Years from now cursive writing will be like hieroglyphics.

Civics. The average American is illiterate about our own system of government.
