From my experience, the quality of kids coming into any industry or job is directly proportional to the quality of their parents
Very much so. It goes way beyond that in many cases.
The term {chip off the old block} is probably a perfect term.
Children have a tendency to emulate their parents to a high degree. Simple application-dad or mom
or both driving the kids where ever that never really stop at stop signs-kid learns that sign really
doesn't mean what it says, it's pink and says sort of stop. So the word {no} is actually nothing more
than gray area. Rules are meant to be broke only strange nurdie people obey rules like stop signs.
Society is obsessed with {fast}. I need information fast/right now, an hour is too late and your
holding me up. The information channel of what I'm using right now plus the I-Phone has caused
a break down in responsibility of the people to learn on their own-or by reading a manual. It's too
easy to jump and go to Youtube and merely copy what someone else videoed or quote authority
without any original thought. People of all ages learn far more when faced with the struggle of
dealing with issues more on their own than relying on someone else. I'm old school, I like to look
in a Manual read how a piece operates then go to work.----All of the above is why parts changers
exist, don't know what makes it go and don't care.
The biggest thing a parent can do for their children that will carry for all their days-teach them
to read and comprehend. And make them understand fast means nothing just instant gratification.
The sign below says it all-instant gratification--Garbage in Garbage out.
