Stand up daughter you've got there Mark.
For every Mill that can change a tire there are 10,000 that can't. Or won't. Not without an "app" for it.
I suppose they could youtube it if they had no other options.

You are definitely right about that Frank. You would be surprised what you run into out there in the real world.... When I was working at the Sheriff's Office I once pulled over to help some millenials with a flat tire. Not only did they not understand why the jack wouldn't jack the car up anymore, (they had placed it on the frame in the middle of the car instead of the proper jack points so they weren't able to get a good turn on it to do anything) they also tried putting the spare tire on backwards and couldn't figure out why the wheel wouldn't go on. After I changed it for them and sent them on their way I realized that this generation is SCREWED....

You cannot win them all.
Yesterday I picked up my son nearly 12 from school and dropped one of his mates off at his home who lives near by.
The boys wanted to muck about with the car, which I am always happy to allow,, its how they get interested in stuff.

What I didnt notice was that they had turned on both the internal lights.
Long story short,, My son now knows how to remove both the batteries, unscrew the cell caps,check the water levels, identify positive and negative and the correct way to use a trickle charger now.
Tomorrow he can advise and help me to put them back in. I write notes and draw basic pictures that are easy for kids to understand, Reinstallation will be the reverse of his notes.
What could possibly go wrong,,,hahaha

Probably considered Gen Why? but still applies.
These young people have been brain(?) washed by their parents to believe they can accomplish anything they want, as long as they have the opportunity. THIS is priceless.

Awesome. Technically Gen Z but who cares.
Just wait til they find out we actually had to MEMORIZE phone numbers as well!
We could absolutely bring this younger culture to its knees by reimplumentling rotary phones and manual transmissions.
Cursive too!
