If you graduated before 2000, you likely took home economics, mostly for girls. Despite evolving gender roles, these essential life skills classes are vanishing from schools. In today’s world, where parents work long hours, kids often return to empty homes. Learning basic skills like cooking and laundry at school is crucial, but these classes are diminishing. Home economics fosters independence. A recent study showed that 62.7% of 2020 high school grads, often heading to college, lack vital life skills. Women are rightfully breaking traditional roles. Home economics isn’t just about cooking; it should include practical skills like changing tires or filing taxes. Despite societal shifts, essential life skills are still overlooked in schools. While parents can teach, a dedicated space for these lessons in school makes sense for a more capable future generation.
