金融教育と家庭科

金融教育と家庭科
 
 台湾には家庭科がない。最近台湾人と話して始めて知った。そこに家庭科の先生がいて、良妻賢母の名残で、やはり海外にはないよねいう話になった。

 最近、金融教育は、家庭科で行うことになっている。現場の先生は大混乱だそうだ。

 金融教育は、生きる力を得るのに、社会を見る眼を養うのにも、必要なものだ。

 ただ、金融そのものが、家庭を、を守ってきたかは、私は疑問を持つ、むしろ、地域や家庭を振り回してきたのではないか。

 社会や家庭科の先生が金融を見直す作業が足りないと思えてならない。
Home Economics and Financial Education

Taiwan doesn't have home economics. I only found this out recently while talking with someone from Taiwan. We discussed how, in the context of home economics, there seems to be a lingering sense of the ideal wife and mother, which apparently doesn't exist abroad.

Lately, financial education has been incorporated into home economics. Teachers on the ground are reportedly in a state of confusion.

Financial education is necessary not only for acquiring life skills but also for developing a critical view of society.

However, I question whether finance itself has truly protected families. Instead, it seems more like it has disrupted communities and families.

I can't help but feel that there is a lack of effort in revising the view on finance among social studies and home economics teachers.
