        I thought schools were invented to teach. 🤔

        Then i would say not one school is doing there job. Now tell me what will any of them do if the grid goes down? Can they look to the sky and use sun,stars? Such B.S. Pay the teachers to teach!

        No wonder they can’t drive well either.......no idea what keeping hands at “10 and 2” means.

        So, let me get this straight. If kids don't know how to read an analog clock, getting rid of it is the solution? With that illogical reasoning, many don't understand math.

        It takes about half an hour to teach a kid to tell time but this is clearly a better solution

        Teenagers don't know how to tell time on an analog clock?!?!? What schools have they been going to? My six-year-old can teach them!

        That is ridiculous. If a teen can't read an analog clock, it takes 5 MINUTES at most to teach them.

        And they allow these people to drive? Do the schools teach anything??? I know a 3-year-old who can tell time on an analog clock. ⌚⏰ 😕

        They need to teach them. Thru also need to teach them to balance a checkbook and count back change and do at least basic math without a calculator. Kids these days can not subtract and count back change. What happens if computers crash?

        @CBSNews so... it is easier to get rid of the tool than to fix the problem of someone not able to use the tool? I am saddened by the shallow thinking they used. It is not about a clock, it is about taking the easy way out. #Sad #Education

        Interesting. Question to the schools...did you actually teach them this skill? I learned it in first grade and my son who is in first grade has been learning it this year. This is a good indicator of why teens are eating Tide pods.

        Perhaps there should be more to help them learn to use analogue clocks. It isn't that difficult. Honestly 😂
