If you could create a subject that will be taught by all schools, what would it be?
 
Communication & Respect. It would be a subject where the students learn how to properly communicate to other members of the human race & how to treat each other in a respectful manner.

Lots of people on this planet would benefit from learning a thing or two about those things.
 
Empathy. A class that teaches kids to know and truly feel what it's like to be in someone else's shoes. Field trips would consist of going to hospitals and interacting with patients, as well as visiting homeless shelters and truly getting to know individuals who aren't as fortunate as they are. I believe that teaching children something like this early on would make them more sensitive to what others might be feeling, the different situations they are placed in, etc. and thus making them less likely to tease, bully, and be more acceptable and compassionate to others.
