When my sons were both little, the two of us tease them lots as they were growing up.
They were taking up work to make a lot of our lives easier.
My youngest kid easily wanted to be a doctor. Another son wanted to be an electrician. One of our kids took up plumbing, heating, and AC repair work. Over multiple years, many of us have had the opportunity when all of us had to use our sons and their skills. Of course my wife nor myself did not feel comfortable to ask our son to supply us with health advice, but our other son that works as a heating and AC specialist was on speed dial. Every time we had a tiny noise in our furnace or air conditioner, my dad contacted him. When there was no air flow, we called our. He was easily the first person to leave the apartment plus be on his own. He is also the one that the two of us easily see the most. My wifey gets up some trouble sometimes just so she can contact our son to fix the heater or air conditioner. She is the only child that has some children and last week we decided to say the furnace wasn’t working so we could have some time with the grandkids. I told myself and others that the thermostat was not working properly and the furnace was problematic. I guess our son thought that we were in need of a repair because he showed up with all of his work tools.
