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.
