It's a shame that they don't bother with things like sewing, cooking etc anymore. These are needed things for people to learn. I learned to sew back when I was in 7th grade. Also learned to bake then. Love it.
Schools don't seem to want to spend money on things like learning to keep a home, as someone mentioned they think sports are more important. Sad.
Some of our best cooks and sewers in the world are Men. Not everyone goes out for sports.
