My oldest helped me fix the dishwasher

Been putting off calling a repair guy because I knew it was gonna be like 300 bucks. My 11yo asked if he could help me look at it. We watched a YouTube video together and figured out the spray arm was clogged. Took us like 15 minutes to fix it. Now he wants to fix everything else in the house. Best part is he's actually learning something and I got to spend quality time with him. Win win.

That's awesome man. Those YouTube rabbit holes actually pay off sometimes. My kids are still too young but I'm looking forward to this phase where they can actually help troubleshoot stuff instead of just asking a million questions.

This is the stuff right here. Saved 300 bucks and gave your son a real memory. Plus he learns that most things aren't as scary as they seem. Win all around.

That's so cool that he wanted to jump in and help. Those bonding moments are gold, especially when you solve the problem together.
