Abstract
This study investigated domestic economy centered on the area of home life which has been established in the new course of study in junior high school. The purpose was to examine the grade level taught. Results are summarized as follows: 1. Parents of the first year in junior high school gave most attention to their children in buying goods. The area of home life to be learned at this level without great difficulty seems adequate. 2. Students took advantage of services, mail orders, specific selling and having telephone card, against our expectation. Learning about domestic economy in junior high school seems necessary.
