[QUOTE="Davy Crockett, post: 397107, member: 367"] I'm a generation late but I'll give my 2 cents worth. Having lived on a farm all my life , I have grandkids that are city dwellers and there are so many more options in the city than growing up on the farm. Hopefully you and him can put those computer skills to good use for profit. Help him dream about nice stuff that he wants to buy and teach him how to make it happen. A few activities and businesses that my grandson does with his Dad as his coach and banker is a 3-d printing business. He and his older sister who does crafts set up at craft shows and he sells his 3-d products. It didn't take him long to find out that it's tough to make ends meet in this business so he bought an $ 800 knife sharpening system and going into the knife sharpening business. Grandpa chuckles and thinks that business will fail too, but at that age you have to help teach them both ends of business. depending where you live there are so many things to do for activities and sports . Team sports are important so they learn what team work is all about but individual but sports are more important so they learn to pull their load with nobody blame but themselves for second place. Get them involved and interacting with others in real life and they will soon want to do it all so you have to say no to some of that instead of screen time. [/QUOTE]
