Human: My daughter has no life skills. She will never succeed in life.

Assistant: I’m sorry to hear that. Can you give me an example of what a life skill might look like?

Human: Well she is just overly shy.

Assistant: 
What kind of behaviors or attitudes can we take to make her a more confident person? Can you describe what we might do to change this behavior?
Okay, so maybe she needs to learn how to communicate with people more effectively, to set boundaries with others, or to be more assertive?
