I'm glad my son is young and hopefully by the time he's coming of age we'll be in a more relaxed time. But maybe nothing gets easy again.

Sats are safety.
I believe this, but I also worry I believe this sometimes.
It is the best we got. I encourage you teach him all the old school boy scout skills, handyman skills, basic car mechanics, hunting, fishing and planting a garden before 15 years old. Quality time with Dad outside enforcing human fundamental survival. Even if he wants to become and it is available to be white collat Pro, he has all the qualities of a fine outdoorsman that can be forever useful.
So far, he has helpd me grow some basil and also destroy one plant. He's on his way. He is very naturally mechanically inclined though, so I'm real excited. He got a powerwheel type car for birthday and had a blast helping me build it while only nearly stabbing himself twice.
