How to work!!! So many lazy kids. I am so glad my Dad taught us how to work. My son hates the stuff I make him do but it will pay off. I make him help me with everything I do around the house and the cars and he is able he does some of it on his own. He changed the oil in my pickup the last time it was changed...come to think of it its due again...COOOODDDDYYY.
MI gave my boys, 7 and 8, a can drink machine last month. We set it up at our house in a trailer park. They have to check it and keep it filled, but I do help them stack the cans when it gets over their heads.
We counted the money a few days ago and they cleared $40 for the month.
I'm teach them to make enough to take care of me when I get old!
really its only 1 bolt and two wires and 1 belt! you should be able to get that done in a few minutes!
I appreciate it, but my husband came home after 12 hours of work and 2 hours commuting and fixed it in 18 minutes flat! (I gave hima 30 minute time limit, after that he would have to work the weekend!)
I am sooo proud!

Um, it takes two to hold an alternator in place, but who's counting. You can generally loosen one of them to adjust the tension on the belt, but many of these newer cars have the alternator mounted in a fixed position and the tension on the belt is adjusted via something else. The really easy ones to change are on GM front wheel drive cars. I had a Buick LeSabre a few years back and it was the easiest alternator I've had in replacing. Good thing too, cause I had to do it twice in less than a year.

My older three kids should be expert cooks by the time they go off to college. Both their mother and step mom are very good cooks (It's always been hard on me keeping the weight off eating their cooking) but they will have to rely on my current wife and myself to teach them how to clean. Their mother never could understand the concept of clean and organized.

I teach a yearbook class at school, and when I came on staff this year I not only rocked the boat, I turned it upside down!
Traditionally, The yearbook teacher has always created the yearbook, with the "staff" watching. I was not ok with that. This is a class where kids learn responsibility. I gave it to them. I watched for mistaked and I guided and taught them, but they did it. Some of the other teachers were saying that I was the calmest YB advisor they had ever met. I said "what do I have to worry about, it's their baby". Did we make a few mistakes? Yep, Did they learn something? Absolutely. I turned the class into more of a leadership development class and they went above and beyond! We need to teach our kids responsibility and leadership!

True that! I made a point of teaching my son things like how to do an oil change, change a tire, replace a battery, etc. My oldest daughter is ready to learn some of these things now, so she's next. In fact, one of our cars needs some brake work, so I have been thinking about using that as a time to teach her how to change a tire on a car.
Teach girls about simple maintenance on a car. About the tire changing, getting the lug nuts off might be a chore Rico.
