All of this information basically amounts to a book, possibly several books. Like my Writing Resources post, I'll be referring my newer articles back to this. It saves time from linking a batch of articles each time.
More than that however, I've always wanted to package something like this in such a way that it could be shared and given away for free. Review it for yourself first. If you know anyone that could use this, I've already done the hard work--all you have to do is give them this article's address. I want to make a difference with my life and what I've learned, and this is the closest thing I have short of sitting and talking with people individually.
Some of this stuff may be a little over the heads of younger kids and teenagers, but I really wish I'd had access to information like this before I entered college. Most of this is good life skills foundation material--things that I never really got in school but fortunately still had taught to me by some really good people.
I sincerely hope that this information helps you and your families. I know right now is a hard point in life for a lot of people, and I know what that's like. While I know I don't have all the answers, hopefully this will spark some ideas for you and get you around ideas that may have never been taught to you. I know a turning point of me personally was realizing that things don't have to stay the same--that there are ways of getting out of circumstances even when you feel trapped.
