Research has shown that <a href=\"https:\/\/files.eric.ed.gov\/fulltext\/EJ1126842.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">teaching life skills supports academic growth<\/a>, helps us form and maintain relationships, allows us to take care of our basic needs, like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.positiveaction.net\/blog\/teaching-life-skills-in-schools\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">managing stress<\/a>, and enables us to become more independent and self-sufficient.
