5.0 out of 5 stars Practical books for young adults!
Perfect book for young adults getting ready to move out or just live on their own to get answers for things that should be common sense, but we parents take for granted. Things told in a simple and sometimes humorous way so they don’t have to hear it from us, but from a book, cuz-we are always wrong! ;D
5.0 out of 5 stars Great book!
I purchased this book for an adulting class I teach and found this book to be so thorough and detailed, but not overwhelming. It lays each chapter out so smoothly and provides the information in a understandable and easily followed way. If you need to learn new adulting skills or just need to review and brush up on a few things, this is a great book.
