4. Their life experience is limited.
They know how to play tennis, bridge and golf. They can swim.

But I went to school with some rich kids who had few survival skills. Some of the girls did not know how to wash dishes or make a bed.

I showed one girl how to open a can of tuna and make a tuna salad sandwich. Later, she called me and asked me, "What is brown meat?" I couldn't figure out what she was talking about. Finally, she told me that she was reading a recipe in a cookbook, and it said to 'brown meat.'

I explained to her how to brown the meat. Sheese.
