^ I think learning all these pragmatic things are soo valuable; and the earlier you start the better. A 13 yo. can learn to book their own medical appointments, speak for themselves in med exams, or go to get their own blood work done. Our D can't drive yet so I'm still a chauffeur if public transit doesn't go there, but by and large I have passed to her everything that she can take on and you'd be surprised what they are capable of (though like the OP, you'd not believe it if you saw her room or laundry situation!).
