JohnnyJones said: A young lad knocked on the door of my workshop the other day. He is 14 and wanted to know if there was a possibility of doing his work experience with me in the summer. He had cycled 7 miles from a nearby (roughish) town just to ask. The answer is yes.  Good on him, and good on you.

authority; they show disrespect for elders and love chatter in place
of exercise. Children are now tyrants, not the servants of their
households. They no longer rise when elders enter the room. They
contradict their parents, chatter before company, gobble up dainties
at the table, cross their legs, and tyrannize their teachers."
The above just about sums it up...but the trouble is it was written by Socratese 3000 years ago.
Just goes to show, every generation moans about the yoof of today, always have, always will. that's excellent. i teach 16-24 year olds and have just shown it to a couple of other staff members here. very good.
