Schools, Make Adulting Easier.

Adulting is difficult.

Let us face the truth, adulting is difficult on all of us. No matter which school you attend, where we graduate from and high degree we hold. There are multiple facets of adulting that are mostly learnt the hard way, if ever that is.

Our primary education creates a foundation of knowledge and skills for us to survive this world while appreciating its foundation, diversity and evolution. It prepares us for the big big world that we are to survive and navigate s we step into it.

I just wish they’d give us some skills that also prepares us for very real things which mostly are the basis to most make or break situations in our lives ahead of schooling.

Here’s some skills I wish I was armoured with before stepping out into this world of adulting:

How To Apply For A Job
Negotiation Skills
Drawing Boundaries
Domestic Life Skills

Mental Life Skills

Identifying Anxiety and Burnouts

Asking For What I Need

Savings & Finance Management

Filing Taxes

What do you think about it?

The Hazy Whisperer is a perspective. It is a platform to realise, recognise and analyse the little things and moments that could make a whole lot of difference, provided they are given the time and thought. It is a journey of self discovery and growth. Here, there are no specific topics, concrete opinions and finality. It is just the existence of possibility of some areas grey, beyond the realm of the black and white.

  I completely agree with you. A lot of complexes and traumas are rooted in our experiences at school.
  Here’s to hoping for a new generation of more aware care givers and educators.
