Yes! My wife grew up in the SF Bay area in one of the wealthiest suburbs. They had water polo, cross country trips etc. They did not, however, have home economics! It makes me so sad, as I see her peers (and for a while, her) be relatively clueless on cooking at home.
The number of restaurants and coffee shops has exploded compared to when I was a teenager.
It starts to add up if you go to Starbucks frequently.
I vaguely remember home economics. We cookes things I don't like. I didn't learn cooking that way.
