I bought this for my older grandchildren...I believe this helps them to be more independent and they have answers to questions they may not even have thought to ask.

5.0 out of 5 stars Such a good book

This is such a good book. My kids are getting older and I wanted to make sure my daughters were aware of the basics before they moved out. Just in case there was something I forgot or wanted them to go over. A book that we read over together. Touched base on all topics and more. Good book.

As another grandson goes out on his own, this book will give him gentle tips on how to be an adult.

4.0 out of 5 stars I recommend this!

Spacing is a little off with the lists, etc. but otherwise, great information so far!

5.0 out of 5 stars College Students Love It

My college students were very excited to see this! They can't wait to learn things they haven't picked up elsewhere. This will be a welcome addition to the lifestyle section of our little library.

3.0 out of 5 stars Super basic

J. · December 21, 2023

This is a very simple book -- both in content and in layout and design. It looks like it was typed in a Word and then never formatted for a book. There are huge spaces between the lines of text (like triple spaced?) and appears like they were trying to stretch it to make it appear longer. (I used to teach English classes, and I had students make the margins larger and triple space the text so that they could make a 1 page essay meet the assignment requirement of 3 pages -- that's what this book is like visually.) If you took out all of the extra lines, the book would be a slim 75 page booklet. It has a simple only-black text design with no color or graphics, etc. The content is fine, but it's very basic and generic advice -- it's good advice, and it does cover the topics on the product listing, so it's accurate from that point of view.

5.0 out of 5 stars The basics plus much more

Has good tips for those staying at home with parents as well as those venture out to live elsewhere. These topics are sure to prompt even more questions for discussion.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very helpful book

J.P. · January 10, 2024

I bought this book for my 17 years old sister thinking it would be a joke book but actually this book is real, it talk about adulthood and guide you to your first steps, it has a shopping list for you and things to get when you are ready to move out and get your own place. It has a lot of helpful tips that most parents don't teach their kids about. I highly recommend it for any teenagers.

Bought it for someone, they liked it
