It’s important that we teach yourself as well as our children basic repair skills when it comes to your vehicle. These skills should be taught to both boys and girls. Our kids need to know how the engine works, what might break down, and how to fix it or find someone who can. Teaching our children these skills is especially important if they are leaving off to college sometime in the near future. Teaching them in advance gives them time to practice and remember theses skills. Besides basic tips needed when moving away from home like how to budget, and cook more than a sandwich. Beyond all that but our children need to know about the car they will be driving so they don’t end up stranded somewhere.
