Here's an interesting question I recently recieved in email from one of my friends who is a loving and concerned parent of a teen: "What things do you wish your parents had taught you that they didn't get a chance to....what did you have to figure out from scratch?"
An interesting side note is that most people learn by doing: the Learning Pyramid. As an adult I find that I will completely understand something if I have to teach another how to do it.
My answer to the question above? How to do laundry! I think it was Mom's secret escape so no one else got to do it. Fortunately, laundry soap comes with instructions on the back of the bottle.
How would you answer the question above? Send me an email if you don't want to post a response in comments. I'm sincerely interested.

I wish I had paid attention to Mom's knitting and crocheting. It's something that I really admire now and would love to know how. I may ask for beginning lessons when I visit in a few weeks.
