Let me tell you a quick story for you guys who have sons of your own.
When I was a kid,there was a guy who farmed right up the road,who had more money than the bank. He worked his kids like a rented mule. The younger one left home and went to work on another farm when he was 17. He lived with that other family. The old man died about 1965 or so. He was holding the mortgage on 11 homes when he died. The older son ended up with the place and ran it right in to the ground. He died in the late 80s,broke and deep in debt.
His widow told me this story some years later. She said that in the spring after the old man died,her husband was out in the yard for at least two hours one day trying to figure out how to set the grain drill so he could plant oats. Another neighbor happened to stop in and set it for him. She said that was just how it was though,the old man did all the thinking,got things ready,then just sent the boys out to do the work. I mentioned that to his younger brother one time. He said "Yup,that's exactly what went wrong,the big boss never taught the little boss what to do.".
