Question Who works on their son(s),or daughter(s) automobiles?

I know there alot of Dads that do most of the automobile work around home. Don't you remember the days when you were young and something was wrong with your automobile? You'd say, "Dad somethings wrong with my truck,(or car in alot of cases)". His reply was, "Well I guess you better figure out what's wrong and get busy fixing it". So you'd go and get after it and repair the problems. If you didn't you didn't just stayed broke or you didn't drive anywhere.

These days your kids look at you and tell you the problem and you try telling them that same thing, but funny you look up in a week or so and you find yourself on your back or under the hood because they can't do it or won't in some cases.

Yesterday, I found myself on my back underneath my son's truck bolting his tailpipe to the frame to keep it stable. It came loose about 6 weeks ago, and I told him that he needed to get a heavy duty Muffler Clamp,(U-Bolt) and fix it. For the likes of me I can't figure out how hard that was to do. I still can't figure out why I ended up doing it when it only took me about 30 min, about 10 min. if I had it up on a lift.

I'm sure some have had simular expeirences.
