My oldest son just turned 14 (WHAT!?). Of course I’m biased, but that kid is such an incredible young man. Without needing any prompting from his father or myself, he started a lawn care business last summer and worked as an intern at our local zoo. This summer he has kept himself busy job shadowing as a computer programmer and coder. He has so much going for him! There’s been a couple of days this summer, though, when it’s become really apparent that I failed to teach him some important life skills. Case in point: He asked if I could help him make scrambled eggs. This came only a few days after he needed my help folding his laundry. This all got me thinking… what other skills do I need to make sure I’m teaching my boys now? I’ve pulled together a list of 10 life skills you should teach your kids before they move out.
