School time is the most memorable time for everyone. We sail from being the kids to teenagers and grown-ups. There are so many things that we learn in school. We got educated with so many amazing information and so many different subjects which eventually help us in our professional lives. But there are some other things as well that one should have learned in school but perhaps didn’t. In this post, I am sharing those soft and practical skills that you should have learned in school but didn’t. Now you will wonder, why I am sharing this now? Well, the reason of this post is that if you didn’t get a chance to learn these things in your school time, then maybe now is the right time to do it OR if you have kids, nieces and nephews in your house, you can teach them as well. So, let’s find what these 15 things are:
- How to care for own mental health
- About the government in general and how voting has a direct impact on us
- Basics of banking, like filling the cheque, withdrawing cash etc.
- About loans and taxes
- Emergency home-remedies for cuts and bruises
- Basics of gardening
- How no work or profession is big or small, and we should respect everyone’s work despite their profession; example delivery boys, sweepers etc.
- Cultivate 5 types of hobbies
- How to be a friend of environment and try to be eco-friendly
- Gender discrimination and how to avoid that
- Money management
- About love and relationships, because mostly teenagers end up with a traumatic relationship experience that effects their all other adult relationships eventually when they grow up
- Communication skills and etiquettes
- Basics of cooking for both boys and girls
- How to cope up with a failure
Hope this helps! I am feeling so nostalgic while writing this and hence decided to put up my school pic. Yes, the photo that you are seeing below is of my in school, year 2006. Feels like an age now!
