I am glad Governor DeSantis is signing a bill to require students in Florida to take a financial literacy class. However, I also wish Governor DeSantis was more supportive of women's rights and issues. He and the GOP has decide women do not have their own protect for their bodies. How sad is that? The law, Rowe VS Wade is significant for so many things for a woman to control who cares for her body. This is many steps backwards for all women's rights to decide what she and her doctor recommend for the patient. Please talk with Govner DeSantis and ask him why he would take the rights from women that wa put with the USA Constitution? How could the have included why back? Because there were not any women asked to join the men who wrote the USA Constitution. Oh brother...this is so simple to understand. Hey, if the GOP's would stop closing and start funding to provide access to planned parenthood clinics, those clinics could get free birth control to all women. You have to ask...why isn't any type of birth control free? Why don't men have more options than condoms which some hate to wear. They hate condoms so much they take them off and don't worry about any consequences. Just think, if the government spent time tracking down absent..

This is a good idea as long as this literacy class is not sponsored by banks/credit companies that then will start sending individual credit applications to the students to apply for credit cards. I would like to see how this class is paid for and/or if' these credit card companies have donated to the governor for access to student/school information . It is all about access to students to gain new customers for banks/credit companies. Can he use the economic council for the lesson planning? How will this be paid for? Follow the trail of money. Who else will benefit besides the high school students from the classes and what information in return is given out for any private funding

That class will be right after the creationism class

In high school 1975 we had something called "Singular living" it was a class to help young people learn how to live on their own after leaving Mom & Dad's home. I did not take it because my parents were pro active on a lot of the home duties bringing me on board from learning how to cook in grade school to finances having me start a savings account in grade school as well. I probably still have the savings book from Falls Savings & Loan in Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio :)

I see a lot of arguments about a state bill. The good thing is if you don’t agree with policy you don’t have to live in Florida. When they pass bills Nationally that you can’t escape that’s tyranny. I which more things were done at the state level. That’s what was really supposed to happen.

That's great BUT doesn't go far enough, in the days of shop and home economics classes kids also learned basic food safety and prep, basic car maintenance, basic tool use. DIAPER changing, bottle feeding, to not leave a kid in hot car,etc It wasn't very in-depth , but better than nothing. Perhaps before driver ed can be attended, you have to take a basic life skills class. I had to figure out college selection and financing on my own, my parents were elderly, but they taught me lots of life skills my friends didn't get. Plus my parents gave me book on sex and REPRODUCTION and talked. Since no one in my family had a unplanned baby but my uneducated ex girlfriends family all did, I'd say knowledge controls destiny.

Perhaps this guy should consider taking these classes himself since he has cost his tax payers in Florida so much from his political blunders. It seems this guy has an obsession with kids and schools. Strange since he doesn’t seem to be the brightest light in the room to help guide people to a better place.

Gov. DeSantis also repealed Walt Disney World's Special Tax District and is now being sued by Florida taxpayers for eliminating Disney's Special District. Ron DeSantis additionally passed the Parental Rights in Education Act or as you may have heard it: "The Don't Say Gay Bill!" Ron DeSantis is against abortion rights for women after fifteen weeks of pregnancy and has publicly said he would go even further and back a bill that moves the cutoff for an abortion to roughly six weeks of pregnancy. One in four women in this country have had or will get an abortion. I approve of financial literacy, but I am strongly opposed to Ron DeSantis!!!

Is this for real? When did teachers become responsible for parenting someone else's kids. (Oh, silly me. Who else would teach your kids. 🤭) This is something the parents should be doing! @parents teach your kids! Supporting this kind of change is like supporting parents who don't want to parent. I was a child once and my parents didn't teach me about finances but you know what. I learned without having the expectation it was up to my teachers. With the ability to find information online (in my day encyclopedias cause the Internet was just starting), watch YouTube videos, audit free courses and even join groups is ridiculous to think of this as a solution.
