       What was A practical skill very important when you were a teen (12-18), that is still still very useful today but most current teens no longer are able to do?Think concrete stuff like remounting a bicycle chain, not abstract stuff like critical thinking.For me it was definitely going to places without modern navigation aids.Just look at a map and write down the rough route and asking directions if I couldn't find it.And if I needed a train, I'd just look at those big charts at the station to find which trains I needed (or ask at the service booth).Nowadays a lot of teens rely on things like Google Maps and 9292 to figure out how to get there.I do use them now too cus they are convenient but if they don't work, I still can find out the old way.

       @finlaydag33k I can still find stuff without any aid of a map during the journey - I basically need to check once and then I am able to memorize it.Names and landmarks is for some reason stuck in my head, and also licenseplates on cars lol

       @selea I do sometimes still need a map depending on circumstances.But I can just write down the route as if it's pacenotes for a rally and I often am able to memorize as well cus of having it written down but I do still keep the paper around in case I forgot while driving.I definitely do not remember licenseplates tho. XD
