It's never too early to start teaching your child these
problem-solving and management skills. It's also important to give your child ample
opportunities to practice them. These life skills must be rooted in knowledge, attitudes,
and behavior. They include:
- time management
- energy management
- handling money
- stress management and coping skills (spiritual self-care, how to handle teasing)
 |
- how to access information and resources
- the ability to be an assertive, effective advocate on one's behalf
- self-care techniques related to daily living activities
- development of social life
- health and wellness care, including nutrition and fitness, personal safety, and
self-defense.
