Life Skills Inventory — How Ready Are You?
The teen conducts an honest self-assessment across practical life skills — cooking, money management, transport, health, household maintenance, communication, and digital literacy. Rather than testing or quizzing, this is a candid conversation about what they can and cannot do independently, followed by building a concrete learning plan for the gaps. The parent's role is to be honest too — not to rescue or reassure but to confirm realities.
Free to do together whenever you like.
What you'll need
No materials needed. This works best in a relaxed setting where honesty feels safe rather than shameful. The parent must resist two urges: reassuring ('you'll figure it out') and criticizing ('you should know this by now'). The tone is collaborative assessment, not judgment.
How it works
The 3-step guide, with what to look for at each step, is for signed-in parents.
