we are lucky that bitcoin is pretty catchy as a name, it will spread fast between student, if they start get used to it, via gaming

in the elementary school professors should already teach about any financial instrument and any asset(just the base of it), including bitcoin, but i don't think they are doing so

I think elementary school students haven't ready yet to get some complicated thing like financial, financial instrument, asset, investment, etc. Yeah I think the teachers won't teach their students about bitcoin since they haven't known about bitcoin and don't have any idea with it. We don't need the school teach our kids about bitcoin, because we don't know whether the teachers say about good or bad to bitcoin since there were many crime news related to it. Just teach kids ourselves, if we feel it needed to them.

Do we really need to start teaching elementary children about bitcoins, it's pretty difficult for some of the non-technical adults to understand the concept of bitcoins, I say leave the kids alone and let them enjoy their childhood, as it is they have lot on their mind, school homework etc.

I think once they reach their teen years it will be good idea to start telling them about it, by that time they'd know how emails and computers work.

We just need to teach them by the same concept with how we introduce real money to them. We won't teach them about inflation or exchanging currency rate or something like that. Just show them what we can buy with bitcoin and why we said bitcoin is better than real money. I think nothing is wrong if kids know about bitcoin.

yeah just the base stuff, nothing too complicated, it is important that they can acquire knowledges about how base economy work, as soon as possible

with the current crisis it is better for eveyrone if he can learn about this, and handle his economic situation
