Cars are not black boxes the same way phones and tablets are. Which one will a child see more of by the time he/she reaches driving age ?
Fathers and sons can still fix cars together (I need to clean out the intake on my new '2001 Jetta TDI...) but its tough...
...almost as tough as a father and son programming computers together (which I'd also happily do with my son)
Note: I'm also not considering the safety hazards of letting your 12y/o drive customer cars around a parking lot (as cited in the article....).
On one level, I'd rather he brick the laptop before he brick his car...
On another, I wish I could give him the feeling of satisfaction derived from replacing 2 subaru headgaskets and seeing the car run again
Being a parent is tough, no matter what year it is.
