Why do schools not teach classes that help students survive in the real world?
Stuff like money management or how to write a check.
Seriously, the first time I wrote a check I was calling my parents like "How do I do this?!" because while the bank did give me "examples" on how it's supposed to look it looked nothing like checks I've seen my parents and others write out.
I suppose luckily for me I grew up in a lower income family so money management was something I figured out how to do early on if I wanted something but still, why are they not required classes in most schools?
About the checks, they look different because it's a trick that people (including my parents) use so nobody could add a few extra zero's to it once it was out of your sight.

Because no one in the education system is smart enough to include that in their curriculum. Everhthing about life should be taught at school including diseases we get from a poor diet, and how to rear your own children.
