  • Especially coupled with enhanced technology, there are several things we were taught as kids that turned out to be completely wrong, changing our perception of everything we learned in school
  • from historical facts, to how we regulate our emotions, and even our solar system.

The article from YourTango discusses various misconceptions and outdated lessons that many were taught as children, which have since been debunked or reconsidered. It highlights myths like the necessity of eating all your food to avoid starvation elsewhere, the oversimplified food pyramid, and the idea that all fats are bad. It also addresses the misconception that you must be good at math or science to succeed, the myth that money doesn't buy happiness, and the belief that hard work alone guarantees success. Additionally, it touches on the fallacy that everyone has the same opportunities, the oversimplification of historical narratives, and the notion that crying or showing emotion is a sign of weakness. The piece emphasizes the importance of reevaluating these teachings in light of modern understanding and personal growth.
