Idk about this....as an intro, I was trying to teach my 1-yo baby cousin how to say “Russell and Whitehead” but instead she uttered “Gödel.”
Should we teach philosophy before college? The answer is obvious if you state the opposite, and substitute the definition in for "philosophy": "We should NOT teach kids to question our fundamental beliefs." "We should NOT teach kids about logic, ethics, and knowledge." Etc.

The closest I came to philosophy was Viktor Frankl's Mans Search For Meaning.. learning about existentialism as a teenager was life changing

I had a good intro to philosophy, using literature as a discussion point, as my HS senior English class and it made a huge impact.

Funny how you present "our fundamental beliefs" as inherently opposed to logic, ethics & knowledge.

(These concepts are literally meaningless without an underlying framework of fundamental beliefs.)

And by enlarge we don't teach 'em this stuff. In many places we barely teach 'em to read.
