I am proud to say that my oldest daughter (19 years old) is a certified welder for a major company. She has severe dyslexia and school was difficult for her, but she graduated high school without any accommodations (her choice). She has always been a tomboy that loves learning how to do things. She can lay brick, block, rock and tile. She’s also an auto mechanic. Basically she excels at jobs that are hands on. Now that she has learned how to do things for herself and is self sufficient the skies the limit for her. I was lucky enough for God to choose me to be her mom and she amazes me every day with her determination. Mommy loves you Alayna

I come from a very different background an upbringing as these gentlemen. I was raised by an immigrant single mother in an urban environment. Along with support from her family my mother managed to pull two jobs, go to college part-time and raised three boys. My mother raised us in NYC during one of the worst times of its history crime-wise. With tough love she instilled morals and a work ethic and kept us from falling through the cracks. While she didn't necessarily push us in any particular direction she emphasized that we needed to do SOMETHING with ourselves. Part of our society's problem is that we have encouraged people for generations to be individualistic at the expense of morals and ethics. For the last thirty or so years society has brainwashed kids to believe everyone should go to college and pursue easy white collar professions. And society has also encouraged people to distrust traditional institutions and authority. It's no wonder that so many people have mental health issues and no real purpose in life.

Great discussion. What I saw from young people in the work place: with zero experience, they knew it all; they were sure they were smarter than you; they were impatient and felt after 8 months they should have been promoted twice because they did a good job on some one thing; they felt anyone with more title and making more money was an “unfairness” (ignoring more experience, expertise, and judgment); they got bored quick and would listen to others only long enough to figure out how to do something differently (better, in their mind); they would disparage the slower, steady, consistently well-performing workers. But note, I do live on the west coast.

Right on! My dad couldn’t be a farmer any more after WW II due to the scars from being burned when he was shot down & a POW in Romania. So he used his GI bill to become a journeyman electrician. He worked hard to support us earning an honest living. My mother was a teacher with double Master’s Degrees but I was taught to never look down on tradesmen because they do the work that hold us together. When my son was in high school and struggling he said everyone in our family would not respect him because he wasn’t college material. I sat him down and told him there was nothing to be ashamed of in working with his hands if that was what he wanted to do. He had a natural gift for doing auto body work, learned the trade well. Then he went to college part time for 7 years while working full time to support his family, got his bachelor’s degree in business management and now manages a shop. He can run it well because he knows how everything works. I am incredibly proud of his work ethic. He is succeeding as an adult when as a teenager he thought he was “too stupid” to do anything. Kids now don’t get that support to be themselves and look at other options.

My father hated when I dropped it, took a major hit in pay and started working at a British car restoration shop. I loved it from day 1. I found out my dad used to call me "grease monkey" even though we were turning out $150,000 art pieces. He always said I shouldn't be working with my hands.... even though he was a 50-yeae construction worker and carpenter. I can drive around town and see the buildings my dad built. He left an impression on our community. He built it. I tried to make him understand that I was like him and proud of it. 22 years as an auto upholsterer, I think he'd be proud of what I've done with it.

Excellent!!! All young'uns need to listen to this!! And while I was listening it made me think of my son. He's 33 and married and has a 5month old baby girl with Downs Syndrome and I'm really proud of his work ethic and devotion to God and his family. He went to college for 1 yr, decided he didn't like the professors telling him how to think, quit college, and he had a scholarship! So then he went to work on a river barge up and down the Mississippi River, out 28 days at a time. Learned skills on that job, operated a big crane, and thought he might want to work his way up to captain on a barge. But then he decided he was lonely and wanted a girlfriend. Lol. Went through a little bit of a bad time during that and God got him back on track. Then he went to work on a crew that fracked and drilled for gas and loved it!! He worked his way up the ranks, took all the classes he could for his future jobs and got his certifications and had his own crew with men older than him working under him. Made more money than I did in my lifetime! Then he got out of that when he saw where that was heading and went to work for the railroad. After 4yrs of that and moving up the ranks there, he quit, I thought he was crazy at the time for quitting but God led him to. Now he has his own consulting company and makes dang good money and gets to be home every night with his family. He doesn't have to travel all over like he used to. And I hear him all the time talking about how it's difficult to keep good workers that want to work. He said most of them can't even pass a drug test. What good workers he's got, he rewards them for it and their loyalty. I'm right proud of him. God blessed me with a good boy! Thank You, Lord!

Thank you guys! I really enjoyed your conversation. Special thank you to Buddy for not only complimenting your good friend Bear, but my daddy too. God has taken my dad Home, and I’ll need to wait to see him again, but I’ll never forget how lucky I was to be able to call him Daddy. He built the house that 9 of us grew up in and I’m proud of him every day for all he did to provide for his family. He was a REAL man, as you say. I was very fortunate, like you, to have been blessed with the best mom and dad that God could have ever given me. God bless you guys and your families. Thank you for putting out non-garbage content. We need to be filling our minds with good things to help push out the trash that’s being pushed in our faces every minute. ❤️✝️❤️

The worst mistake the school system ever made was taking out vocational courses. My dad and brothers took wood working, mechanical and masonry. My sisters and I took Home Economic to learn cooking and sewing, even though my mom had already taught us those skills, we advanced our skills through Home Economic classes. By the time my daughter went to high school they had cut all them classes out. I’ve heard a few schools have started to offer masonry classes, but they need to bring them all back so young people can learn skills they can use all their lives. Your friend has skills that has grown into a business. The best education one can have is actually growing their skills in life through trail and error.

Well recently in our school district I was thrilled to find out they brought back auto mechanics yes I have introduction to engineering class that my son who is now in college as an engineering student took advantage of they also at our school recently brought back a construction trade class my kids didn't have the opportunity to take it cuz they just brought back this year and my three oldest did not have the opportunity to have a these courses tell my fourteen-year-old she's a freshman show me that they started these classes again and I remember when my niece's went to school at our school they had those courses this is great because we live in a very rural area and I farming state and a lot of kids do not want to go to college and we need a lot of the trade skills in our area in our town we have a local electrician and his company will hire these Junior and senior High School boys to work part-time in the afternoon learning the trade and then when they get out of high school they're prepared to come work with him as a princess until they become joint email which I think is such a wonderful idea this man who owns the shop get my opportunity to work for him and wanted him to come there as a electrical engineer and even if you don't want to go to just be electrician which makes very good money and won't cost them a dime to learn and going to that trade which is about a million people short right now in America

Having my roof replaced this week. The roofing company owner said he has more potential jobs than he has time to do the work. Said he advertised for full time help at $30 an hour. No takers. Not a single phone call. I know it's hard physical labor, but still that's a decent wage for something that doesn't require any education past high school. Once you learn the trade you can start your own business - like he did.

Being able to point to something of quality & with humility saying, “I built that”.

The high school I went to in the 70's was in a town that had several foundry's. In metal shop class they taught everything from welding to making molds and pouring molten metal , there were metal lathes and a drafting class. There was a Vocational Education Center for the county which you could attend while in high school. So you could graduate from high school with the knowledge needed to land a job /career in a chosen field. The "VO-ED" center covered everything from childcare to autobody to electricians to carpentry and many more.

As a mom of girls, my husband and I raised them to work hard. All 3 of them work circles around the other younger crowd. We strongly felt that it was our job to teach them how not to depend on others and show them that they are more than capable of doing a job the right way the first time around. We instilled in them to love God, Country and the outdoors. They also respect their elders and even speak up when their friends are slacking. Needless to say, my girl’s will be the first to jump in and help people around them. It’s sad that we have had to also teach them not to let others walk all over them. I personally just can’t fathom what some of the other parents were doing instead of raising their kids. God bless
