Hello Rabbi, I would love to hear your opinion about the preferred education system for children today and what you think about Haredi education.

It’s hard for me to set concrete goals. The question is what goals you have in mind and what your perception is regarding keeping Torah and mitzvot and worshipping God.
I personally think that Haredi education is very problematic, but that is of course in light of my religious views. It is an education for very problematic sloganeering, and dishonesty. It is clear that non-Haredi education also has significant flaws, but I personally much prefer them. For me, the principle is that if there are two flawed options, then it is worth at least earning the truth (which is certainly not Haredi). But this is a broad topic (because it concerns religious views in general, and the same applies) and it is difficult to whitewash it here.
