[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]All the cleaning and 1950s home economic s lessons are things that people will pick up along the way. They will quickly find a youtube video on how to tie a tie. They will google the instructions for laundry not wear dirty clothes everyday. How to do your taxes, register to vote, register your car, renew your driver's license, understand credit card offers and avoid predatory ones, navigate and understand health insurance, read a rental lease and understand what you are agreeing to in the lease, car maintenance (they don't have to do it themselves but they need to know not to drive on a flat tire and to change their oil). [/quote] I agree with this. It is amazing to me how many adults do not ever grasp health insurance, loan documents, proper saving. Much more important than learning how to cook eggs or tie a tie.[/quote]
