I would rather my daughters have a strong foundation of Torah knowledge than know how to bake a cheesecake.
Cooking is not rocket science – open a recipe book and follow.
Nowadays, we are really sending girls a mixed message. On the one hand, she is supposed to take care of the home, the children etc. On the other, she is supposed to be the breadwinner and support her husband in Kollel.
Torah knowledge is needed to combat women’s exposure. I would rather my daughter know how to read a Rambam than bake a fancy cheesecake.
