Grow Up!: The 101 Essential Things Every Child Needs to Know Before Leaving Home

It's a daunting task for parents trying to equip their offspring with the resources to cope in an increasingly complex and competitive world. Most of us are so busy simply providing for our kids that it is easy to overlook the basic skills that our children need to have. Not only do you want them to be equipped financially and domestically, you also want them to be safe and aware. "Grow Up!" is a fun, engaging checklist of what every parent should ensure their child knows, including instructions on everything from how to boil an egg, advice on sexual health, alcohol and drugs and tips on managing a budget and handling finances. Speaking directly to parents and children, complete with the teenager's take on life (the author's 14-year-old son will contribute his voice to the book), quotes from celebrities on their experiences when they left home, cartoons, and most importantly with a fun quiz at the end, 'Are you ready to leave home?', this reassuring book will ensure that our children are equipped to survive in the real world.
