What do I hope to teach my boys before they leave the house?

My babies are growing quickly before my eyes. As an OT, I have always encouraged and fostered their independence. That is easy when they are young; they are always around and it is innate for them to want to try things that you are doing. I can tell that as they grow and we are not together as often and we are focusing on school, sports, activities, friendships, travel, etc., I will need to make a conscious effort to teach them these life skills. Some are serious and some are just things I wish I learned sooner!

These are specific life skills I hope to teach them. They are not the broad aspects that I hope for them, such as: being a good person, being kind, finding their own way in the world, being happy, asking for consent etc etc etc.

Would love to hear if you have any to add!!
