What are you doing to try to keep your son (or maybe daughter,) on the farm so that you can transition to him? It goes without saying that the farm life is not for everyone, and the chances that your son will be one who will ultimately take the farm over are most likely under 50%, but it sure is good for everyone when the transition happens and it goes smoothly.
