Teach Wisdom at school, for example, the sayings of Confucius
“The man [or woman, or non-binary or woke or nor woke person] who moves a mountain begins by carrying away small stones.”
“If you make a mistake and do not correct it, this is called a mistake.”
“Study the past if you would define the future.”
“Respect yourself and others will respect you.”
“The man who asks a question is a fool for a minute, the man who does not ask is a fool for life.”
“When you see a good person, think of becoming like her/him. When you see someone not so good, reflect on your own weak points.”
“To be wronged is nothing, unless you continue to remember it.”
“Before you embark on a journey of revenge, dig two graves.”
There are many simple sayings from many religion's and philosophies that will surely help children to navigate through this complex world.
Perhaps there should be a subject called 'Wisdom of Deceased People'? (Wisdom, for short).
