Loaded with lists of sample job interview questions, scripts for
making phone calls, basic grocery staples, first-aid supplies, cleaning
items, home repair tools to have on hand, etc., this book puts at the
forefront things young adults are thinking about.
In the age of COVID and chaos, social media, and sky-high rents, it's
harder than ever to be an adult. No wonder so many young people have
trouble adulting, aren't feeling it, and don't know how to begin. Being
in charge of your own life seems exciting until you realize the
so-called real world is a mix of daunting decisions and mundane details.
Who knew that health insurance could be a deciding factor for taking or
turning down your dream job? What exactly do you say to the doctor's
office when you need to make an appointment? And why does laundry have
to be separated and done so often? This book tackles and answers the
questions young adults sometimes don't even know to ask. It's adulting
101 without having to take the class. Chapters in the book are ordered
in a way that puts at the forefront the things young people are thinking
about right now, with a new generation going into adulthood more likely
to be living with family; more politically and civically engaged; and
using social media as a communication tool/platform.
