Wow, I missed a lot in the last few days.
My son too is a picky eater. But he can make cereal, PB&J sandwiches, and frozen pizza - his staples. He will have a food plan, so I am not concerned about cooking. I didn’t get any lessons before going off to college and I managed. I suspect next year if he goes off campus, he will be asking me how to cook things like pork chops, chicken tenders, etc. He loves canned vegetables and knows how to use a microwave - so he won’t starve.
As for school - all done. Graduated on Saturday. He is heading to Destination Imagination Globals later today to compete through Saturday - his very last high school activity.
I am required for Dr. Appointments - he is a minor and his Dr. won’t see him without me. They did say he could come and get boosters and the TB test required for college without me. The Dentist will see him alone.
Our county requires a personal finance class. It does teach check book balancing - a lost and mostly unnecessary skill in my opinion. I don’t keep a register anymore, I just check online. I rarely write checks, and I keep backup money in the account. It KILLS my Mom that I don’t balance my checkbook. 
She says, what if they make a mistake - I said any time I thought they did, It was my mistake. So I just look for what money has cleared from where and only question if I don’t recognize it.
I also know that in a class or two they had projects where they had to create a budget, research costs, etc. So at least fundamentally, he knows how to do that. He has a sub account to our account, so I can see his spend. He’s never had a job, too busy with activities at school. He says he wants to get one at school, but with the scholarship stipend, he really doesn’t need to. I will discourage it the first semester.
As for cleaning - well, it could be better. When he feels like it, he does a good job. He can vacuum and do laundry - though he doesn’t really fold. At least he’ll smell ok. He has had his own bathroom for several years, and I’d be willing to bet that he will be better when sharing than he was alone. I don’t know what he put on his bio for school, he didn’t share it. He does take care of the cat litter, and garbage. I did mention to my husband just yesterday that we should show him how to change a tire and make sure there’s a spare in the car he takes to school. But again, he could wait for our insurance company assistance for breaking down.
As they say, that which doesn’t kill you, makes you stronger!
I expect that when he returns at the holidays, he will be MUCH stronger.
