Maybe I should frame it this way: who stands to gain by not teaching these skills until an individual is out of high school? I don't know. Well, what is the result of a lack of these skills in elementary, middle school and high school children and teenagers? I'd guess that they have a less than stellar ability to problem-solve and think outside the box, which might mean that they are more easy to control. I don't want to get all conspiracy-theorist, but it makes sense. Pliable, unquestioning students are easier to control. Another crazy thought is that younger people generally vote liberal, but I'll file that under "crazy" for the time being.
