Hello, I am 20 years old and a young parent myself. I have to admit that I haven’t been very good at learning some of the basic things in life, like washing my face, legs, and feet. My parents never taught me these things when I was young. Furthermore, I was never taught how to cook or clean. There are so many things that my parents didn’t teach me, and I’m really grateful that my wife has been helping me learn as I come to understand that I don’t know certain things. It makes me feel a bit ashamed, but I really want to learn. So, please teach your kids how to bathe and live.
Always a great reminder to focus on the basics. In addition to hygiene and cooking, there are a lot of little things like basic repair by tightening screws, cleaning surfaces, and upkeep on utensils and other things that are used regularly that are great to pass on if you know how. While my parents did teach those things when asked, they were extremely busy and didn’t always volunteer the non-basic stuff and I didn’t know to ask.
Thank you for the reminder, @[email protected]
