Surviving away from Dad

This book is something my daughter loves. Her Dad taught her many things. Since she lives in CA & we moved to WI, she misses having Dad there to help her out. Now she can figure it out on her own. She still calls Dad for directions!!!!!

A lifetime of advice for good living in one little book!

This is another winner from the author of, Where's Mom Now That I Need Her? This time, we're being given some advice on the arts of dealing with contracts, budgeting, fixing leaky faucets, tying a tie, asking for a raise, or wrapping a gift. Outrageously useful, this book belongs on your bookshelf, if you can find a space... Now, if your shelves are too crowded, there is also some wonderful information on how to throw a yardsale! Either way, you need this book!

Paired Up With...

This book picks up where, "On Your Own For The First Time" leaves off. These two books paired together and your child is set! On Your Own gives advice for resume writing, insurance, credit, room-mates, interviewing, shopping for cars, leases, legal matters, personal investing, etc. These two books together make the perfect graduation gift or even for the newlyweds....

How to Survive when you leave home

For Christmas last year I purchased this book for my daughter who had just graduated from College. Living 200 miles away, we were not able to help her with things like fixing a flat tire or finding the fuse box and what to do when you find it. I would include a box of tools along with this book for a complete gift. Also the companion book, Where's Mom Now That I Need Her? is also an excellent book. I gave them both to my son in college.

A wonderful book for everyone that moves away from home

This is a must buy for - the college kid moving away from home, - the single person that gets its first own apartment, and - a newly wed young couple.This one in combination with WHERE's MOM NOW THAT I NEED HER is the ultimate tool. I bought mine while I was already married and knew how to cook because it has great QUICK recipes in it and clean up hints as well as help on measuring etc. A definit MUST BUY for every child that leaves home. and the hardcover version is great because of the ring binder. It lays flat while cooking and you can add pages.
