I’m taking My Son on a Man Trip | What I’m Up To

[@kitcarson1388]

Jonah earned every bit of that. He’s an amazing kid. I’ve enjoyed watching him grow up.

[@kaycampbell8532]

Jonah is so mature for his 14 years. I can only imagine how proud you must be of him.

[@kathymulligan3652]

I just LOVE Jonah! Wise and responsible beyond his years. Says so much for his parents. I sure would like my granddaughter to find someone like him someday!

[@karendavis8764]

Jonah has been giving to the family for years! Usually a trait of the first born. Such a wonderful gentleman Jonah has become. Great job!

[@laurasimpson7211]

I think this is amazing! Do it with all your Children even your baby girl when they are older! They will never ever forget this time and effort from you!❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@mmegraham]

All children, even girls, benefit from good modeling and close bonds with their fathers!

[@doloreslindsley6510]

What a wonderful time for you both! Everlasting memories!

[@donnakearse2503]

Such a sweet young man. I’m glad he has special time with you. He really works hard for his family.

Jonah is one awesome young man. He deserve all good things that comes too him.

[@joanreid2804]

OMG Justin what a Dad! Thank you for sharing this experience with us. Hopefully other dads will will follow.

[@gailasgreatdanesandmanes1042]

Incredibly important to seize these moments... Our children grow up so fast... building bonding memories is vital! 🥰

What you said in the car about Johan was just so lovely, he is such a fantastic young man!

[@tonygrimes13]

[@sharoncochran8508]

I am so impressed with Jonah! I hope that all your days are just as good!

[@elizabethlink3993]

💚 Jonah is such a great young man..with great parents! Enjoy your special trip..(love getting the inside scoop on the Tesla 😁) 💚

[@lararabb8888]

Yep he has been giving back for a while. He is a great kid/young man. Creative, intelligent, kind & hard working.

[@jamesbrown8718]

You are an awesome father Justin, Jonah is amazing young man, he doesn’t say much unless you stroke the conversation. He works so hard on the farm, does a great job with ask the animals, he knows so much on how to do things to be his age. He can build anything, he can wield and knows how to hook up electric fences. Back when I was his age, I had three older brothers so they got to learn everything, I was the youngest and was always told I was too young. So driving the tractor or the farm truck was out of the question had to learn that later in life. Enjoy your time Jonah with your dad, and never be afraid to ask him anything or tell him anything.

[@tammysarrazin7078]

being a single parent i told my kids if they ever need to talk to me i am open and if they didnt feel right as a adult they trusted but they would ask me first all the time i loved it hugssss

[@yourstruly9448]

I love the man motto: a boy takes, a man gives. Awesome Justin!! Hope you and Jonah are having an amazing dad/son celebration! Thanks for taking us along! You also make a fantastic commercial for Tesla! Lol 👍 who knows maybe they'll give you a Tesla to endorse 🤗👍! Or better yet give Jonah a Tesla!!

[@janicew6222]

I'm glad you had this time with Jonah. You are raising a fine young man.

[@Mindy56743]

The utube channel really opened up so much of the world to you and your family. I am so happy that you have been able to do this and experience so much. Hard work and good values have taken you so far. Congratulations on that. What you and the beautiful one have done with your children is astounding! The way the children have grown and the responsibility they take on and the adults they will become is so huge! That is completely you and the beautiful one I have been blessed to watch this almost from the beginning. I wish I had the courage to have done something like that with my own children. Thank you for showing the world they can farm and raise healthy and well adapted children at the same time without government interference!

[@chpsusan]

You are a cool dad and your son is a cool kid. I loved seeing your bonding trip together. Have a blessed trip together.. thanks for sharing!

[@margaretbedwell3211]

This will be a memory of a lifetime for him. Thanks for showing other fathers what a meaningful time it is. Y'all have a wonderful time and please don't take your hands off the wheel again, that made me so nervous. !!!!

[@PaulHorneLA]

Just beautiful to watch - your relationship is an inspiration. Awesome dad with an awesome son. 🙌

[@southernladywithmanyhats7428]

YES love that Jonah! He does what needs doing without being asked. I LOOOOOOOVE a giver and that is just what he is!!!

[@vickiemeisinger9632]

What a wonderful idea to take your son on a trip where the two of you can bond. It is important no matter how many children you have that each of them get quality time and they feel you have your undivided attention!! It is very hard when you come from a family of multiple children and especially when you live on a farm and there’s constant work to do particularly through the spring through fall months when everything is about gardening and produce and harvest and baby animals and getting them fattened up and ready for sale or breeding…… And it isn’t until winter time that you actually get a little bit of a rest and then the weather doesn’t exactly cooperate for you to have and Any Opportunity to spend with your parent or child!! This was a wonderful video and I am so glad you took out time to visit with your son and let him know that you were there for him and he could talk to you and trust you. More parents need to have time like that and it doesn’t have to involve necessarily spending Lots of money… you can also go on a camping trip and have picnics and hiking and save money that way but go to a beautiful area that they’ve never been. Every state has beautiful zoos and hiking areas and scenery that many of us have never been to and many points of interest in historical areas and definitely fun for all ages of children. I live in the Midwest and I have lived in three States but driven to six states around me in order for my children to see and tour many unique areas of those states. 100 to 250 miles it’s not too much to do in a days time and your children feel like they have done something wonderful. I remember when I took my children to Oklahoma City and there was so much to do we could not do it all in a weekend but we hit the highlights of water boats & slides, multiple types of museums, great food including their favorites, the zoo of course etc. and we were all so tired by the time we got home everybody was very excited about the trip and it was a long enough trip home that we had lots to talk about. Several years later my son when he was a senior and we talked about private senior trip just him and I, and I I asked him where he thought he’d like to go he picked Oklahoma City again. My daughter on the other hand picked Minnesota because she wanted to see the three-story mall. And although there was launched by there we decided not to spend a lot of money but rather look for something super special that she could have the rest of her life which I was so proud of her that she found a Ballerina bronze by an artist that to this day I would love to have it myself! These trips you have with your children Can be a foundation for your values for the rest of their life and memories definitely for the rest of their life. This is a wonderful example and I encourage everyone saying this video to take time for your children. God bless you all who Are parents & want to take the extra mile and take time for that one on one trip with her child as they grow!!

[@StoneKathryn]

Sounds like some pretty wonderful trips you did with your children. Kudos.

[@mariesheppard3750]

I have always told my child and grandkids ask me anything , tell me any thing as long as it s the truth , Jonah is a wonderful young man,

[@bobbiemooser7417]

What a fun time‼️ so exciting‼️cool car‼️I always wondered how those cars looked on the inside and how you would plan a trip always needing to plug it in. This is a wonderful trip for you and your son. The memories will last a lifetime. Bless you both❤️

[@yvettekinchking8838]

I love how the entire family does chores. Jonas as the first born deserves the first telsa trip. So many utubers don't allow the children to participate in the farms building and growing of food. Jason's a great example of bonding with his children ❤

OMG Jonah is soooo TECK savy and learns sooo fast.... maybe you should introduce him to learning coding programs like java, and Python. C, C+, C++ ect. I think he would be great and excel in gaming programs, Android and iPhone programs, and the listed ones above. Thank you for sharing yall trip. HAVE GREAT BIG HAPPY JOYFUL FUUUUUNNNN........

[@tommielourogers4327]

I agree that he has been a giver to the family far more than a taker. He truly is an amazing young man. You are very blessed to have a son with this much maturity and character. You have great goals for this trip. I am so impressed. I do have a question about the car. At the end of the trip, could you crunch the numbers and tell us how the electric “fuel “ compares with gasoline and with diesel price per mile wise? In my mind most of our electric power comes from coal, natural gas and oil power plants and every time you convert one thing to another, the price goes up, and you also produce a waste product like carbon. So logically an electric car should cost more money to run. I do understand that there are other factors in the bigger picture, like the cool factor and global warming and other environmental issues. Plus on the negative side, there is also the time issue of having to wait 30 minutes to do a full charge as opposed to 10 minutes at a gas station which includes a bathroom break. (Not counting at home charging) On a much larger scale, I am wondering if most of the country converts to electric vehicles, which is the Government long term plan, there will be about a 20 minute/week/ driver loss in productivity time. Plus all of that “fuel” energy will have to come from the power plants which have their own carbon footprint. They already now have a much bigger footprint since we changed from US processed oil, coal and gas which was the cleanest in the world to shipped fuel from other countries, which was much much dirtier. If those same power plants have to provide all of the extra energy for cars, nation wide, won’t that add immensely to the carbon footprint of our nation? I don’t have the answers to my questions yet, but after the last year and a half with the gas price fiasco, I don’t think that the government people have thought this all of the way through either. Since we are all being effected so much already and we are being asked to make future sacrifices, shouldn’t we be asking these questions now, to see if this over all plan is actually going to work and at what price? It seems like our standard of living is shrinking every day. I know that so far, for me, as a person on Social Security, my standard of living has been reduced to the bone and I am no longer able to do anything that brings me any joy. So I am wondering if all of the trade offs are going to balance out in the end. Or will we all be living in the “just barely surviving mode”???

For some of your audience, it may be important to stress that the taking/giving lesson is not necessarily a gendered one. Children, not just boys, are often receivers/takers of time and attention. When people are children (not just boys), they often have the viewpoint that the world revolves around them. Adults (not just men) are often givers, because we have learned that each person (no gender) is valuable and worthy of support and respect. Jonah is a magnificent young man. It has been an honor and joy to see him grow within your family!
