What do you think are the most important skills your children should learn to become successful in life?

Language, literacy, logic... Those are the top three answers of most parents.

But what about... cooking? Or housekeeping?

If you think teaching your child numbers is more important than them learning how to vacuum, then you have another thing coming.

Studies have confirmed that the professional, personal, and financial success of an individual is not a product of highly developed academic skills.

In other words, having straight A's might not get your kid as far in life as you had hoped.

Instead, educators and psychologists suggest that the so-called soft skills are crucial when it comes to having a successful, happy, fulfilling life.

This does not mean you should not encourage your kids to study hard and earn good grades.

But it does mean that without those soft skills, even the most educated adults will find themselves at a disadvantage in both the workplace and in life.

Kids will learn some of those skills in school, but the majority of them require engagement from parents.

There are certain things children can only learn at home, with your support and encouragement.
