IMO, learning how to fold napkins is ridiculous. Learning to cook and sew is okay, but I wouldn’t have wanted to learn any of that in HS. I learned those things from my mother and grandmother. When I was in HS, I was glad to learn Chumash and Navi, math and history and science. Why waste time and money on a class where the girls would skip? When I was in HS, I didn’t care about cooking or baking or taking classes to help make me a good wife and mother. But maybe that was just me. Maybe those classes should be electives.
