Ooh... I like those. I had thought of problem-solving, but I like goal setting and tenacity, too. Conflict resolution? Analysis?
Here's some concrete stuff. (Some of this stuff can be taught at home... The venue doesn't matter. The point is stuff that should be learned, regardless of the setting):
-- first aid
-- cooking
-- basic car and home maintenance (at least enough to handle small stuff and know when you're not getting ripped off by the plumber or mechanic)
-- personal finance
-- basic economics
-- computer programming?
-- reading
-- technical writing
-- creative writing
-- I'm not sure what the term is, but consumer savvy?
What else?
