That’s great. And even better because those skills will be more valuable than knowing how to say, use a computer, when TSHTF!
I wish my son inherited - or just learned! - those skills. He’d rather do computer stuff than fix things. Unfortunately.
My husband is in IT and 2 of the 3 boys are following him. The oldest got his degree in computer stuff but took a construction class in high school for 2 years, building a home each year which the school then sold in the community. So he has some practical skills in that area. The youngest one is taking computer classes as well, but took after our other son and is always out working on cars and such too. He will take an auto class offered at the high school he attends next year, but he’s also taking computer classes at the community college and will go into that field. He’s also the one that has been raising chickens since 5th grade. Interest in that is waning with these more exciting (less work) options. The 3rd son went to college and took auto mechanics classes. He also got some communications training in the Marine Reserves. He’s an avid hunter and fisherman and enjoys everything involved with that including the cooking part. They each have their main interest, but we encouraged them to take a class or two in something that may either be a life skill or hobby interest for future.
