I worked full time each summer in high school. My father sat down with me my freshman year and walked me through the 1040. I got a ‘return’ each time, so the motivation to learn it was to get a check at the end of the maze of tables and questions, but I did it.
If your grandson asked that question, he’s well ahead of the curve. I’m guessing you’d need pull with a school board member or principal to add that to the curriculum. Should be part of civics IMO....

Thank you I agree!
There really needs to be a class for seniors as PLMerite call “Reality 101”.
