Some elective classes offered by various high schools cover a few of those subjects.
Adult living (or whatever name it goes by) in the Home Ec department covers etiquette and cooking. Accounting typically covers a section on personal finance. Mechanics/Construction classes can include basic home repair and car maintenance. Most high schools have or at one time had a speech class requirement for graduation. It's not perfect, but for schools to include everything parents should be teaching kids at home and aren't, means either making school days longer or giving up other necessary curriculum. 🤷🏼♀.

@LadyBronte I think I actually saw a college elective course called Adulting 101 on a website a few months ago.
That amused me.

@LordShadowfire Sad that so many of these kids today have no one to teach them life skills.
