When teaching your children (or deciding what you could spend your time learning), you may wish to consider the following words of wisdom:
“Do not immerse yourself so much in the technical [i.e. academic education] that you fail to learn things that are practical. Everything you can learn that is practical—in the house, in the kitchen cooking, in the yard—will be of benefit to you [and] is worth doing…If it is not of particular benefit to you, it will help you when you are serving other people”
–Boyd K Packer (emphasis added)
