Very interesting. I keep saying high schools should be teaching basic life skills, not just English, history, science, and math. Bring back shop and home ec. Include banking investing,insurance, credit, things like that. Also some basic life skills such as how to change a flat tire, how to hang a ceiling fan, how to sew on a button, how to cook some basic meals, how to take care of a house and yard etc.
I actually took shop and home economics in HS and similar courses in college. Try to find a young person today who has taken similar courses. At least with the sheltering in place people are cooking more!
