[quote=Anonymous]My DS is a sophomore enrolled in auto tech. I wish he were as motivated in his other classes as he is in auto tech. Owning a shop has been his childhood dream as his father used to be a mechanic and he grew up around my job working for an automotive magazine. He wants to complete a three year program offered at our county career center and become a master tech. He gives me a bit of resistance when I talk about college and encourage him into auto engineering. He loves working on cars, but I do worry about him wearing out physically later in life if he puts college off....although I feel like I'm wearing out sitting at a desk 40 hrs a week myself, so I consider that too. I continue to push him on business courses, computer skills and management skills as well as additional auto-related certifications and am glad he is excited to intern at Nissan over the summer.
