Did we somehow ruin the next generation?
Did they ever have practical hobbies? I flew and built model planes and
boats.
I'm sure you do your best learning when its fun, and I was always inside
electrical stuff. As long as you always keep one hand in your pocket you
will just get a moments pain.

There's something of a catchphrase in our place,
"Hey Dad, good if [broken appliance/machine] was working wouldn't it?"
"Fix it then", I'll suggest, to be told, "I don't know how", like *I* was
somehow born with all the answers. I feel like I was a better influence as
they were growing up but people of that age are all just sort of broken.
