    Absolutely they should help! I was laid off recently from my IT job and in the process of a new job search, I can tell you guys that AI technology, while it as existed for a while, is really ramping up and I believe will make many jobs obsolete even in the next 5 years. Did you know AI can write articles, make videos, narrate in the same conversational vernacular as a human? I see newspapers in the near future firing all their reporters and using AI to write all their stories. (Who’s to say they aren’t doing that now?)

    It is going to be so important for children today to have practical hands on skills, most all of which they would learn working on a farm or ranch. And of course, all the skills they develop aside, such as problem-solving, etc. I truly believe they won’t have any other way to make a living and will be miles ahead of their peers when they grow up because of what they can learn from working on a farm and working with an older person.

    It is so important right now for children of all ages to spend as much time possible with grandparents and older aunts and uncles. The older generations have knowledge, skills and wisdom they are going to need in the future and they will be richer in so many ways from the time spent together.
