[quote=Anonymous]OP, in all seriousness to your question, street smarts are important and not something that just have to happen the hard way. It's worth putting up with the protracted eyerolling your kids are giving you. I recently took two kids who weren't related with differing degrees of street smarts somewhere, and I was surprised how sharp the contrast was and how some things I took for granted just didn't even register with one kid. E.g., leaving a wallet out on a counter somewhere with a bill sticking out while you do something else. J. J. Bittenbinder used to host a show in the 90s called "tough target" that had some very decent advice. [/quote]
