I enjoyed reading through all of these noble skills that we need to be teaching our kids. I would say though that the most important principle I have been trying to teach my two girls over the years is to work as hard as you can to find a man who will do all that stuff for you.

Arya, we need your unpolluted Norwegian wisdom too!

Hahaha! Don't get me started..
Value your partner, and don't take him or her for granted, might be the most important advice I'm able to contribute with in that department. And don't hit your wife... She can still kill you in your sleep.

I'm busy shovelling my roofs this winter. Snow has drowned half my house :p
Shovelling hundreds of meters without injuring your back might be a practical skill in life too? Maybe not so much in the UK?

Funny, but on a serious note, if they instead spend all of that time acquiring the knowledge themselves, they won't have to stay in an unhappy relationship just because they don't know how to change a lightbulb themselves :p

Neither would all the men who find themselves in that very same position :)
