[QUOTE="Ky hills, post: 1766121, member: 24816"] Rural farm and ranch life is such a good experience for children. If they are around their parents working from an early age and brought in on the work then they can learn many valuable skills, and also indirectly life lessons, work ethic and drive. There are real dangers, but teaching them that and actually disciplining children instead of making excuses goes a long way in teaching responsibility. The majority of children today are raised in town in front of a tv, phone or some kind of electronic gadget. They pretty much only learn from school and that’s woefully lacking on so many levels. I’d say 18-20 year olds today are less mature and responsible in some ways than 12 year olds 60 or so many years ago. [/QUOTE]
