For about 7 months, my brother had a terrible custody battle with his ex leaving their daughter in a sort of limbo school wise. She thought it was great that she didn't have to go to school. What 12 year old does.
So I bought all the books for year 8 Maths, English, Science. And set her assignments to do herself since I was going to college 4 days a week myself. On my days off. Field Trip!
The Maritime history Museum.
The Airplane Museum.
The Railway Museum.
The Arts Museum.
The Natural History museum.
The National State Library.
The Horticultural museum in the Botanic Gardens.
The Zoo.
Comic con.
Avcon (Anime and Video Game convention)
Tours through the University.
Sometimes we would just get on the train and visit areas of the city she'd never gone before. Always doing the touristy thing. I encouraged her to read and take in all the information she could on these trips. Never quizzing her on any of it. Just trying to make learning fun.

😂. Taught my son that a good joke never dies. You just keep driving it home. The others will get it eventually

Black olives on the fingers. It’s a must know for future generations.

“Don’t chase the grackles, because they’ll get their friends and attack you,” I warned my 4-year-old nephew.
He shared that info later on at a park when these two little girls were chasing the birds. 🤭
Seriously, though. 😐 Those birds aren’t playing around.

Don't be afraid to get your hands dirty. After all it can wash off.
The moment you got a job start setting aside $50 or more a month in a 401k or a self-directed IRA.
