Re:75% of the time we spend with our kids in our lifetime wi... by geomark on Wednesday October 19, 2022 @04:27AM (#33259217)
This is the mode I am in with my kid. Got him started on making and coding at a very early age and he took to it. He's 12 now and doing some significant things with Python, 3D printing and Arduino; the latter two were new to me so I picked up a couple of cool hobbies. He's an avid reader so I keep filled a pipeline of good books for him, and I read them first which means I'm filling in gaps in my own education of books I should have read in high school. We went to home schooling when Covid hit and that has worked out very well.

But... I am older and I retired early (tech was very good to me) so I have full time to spend with him. That doesn't work for people early in their careers.
