He did not.

The generation coming after this CHAZ/CHOP will be notably stronger and more conservative than this one. Actually, they scoff at their elder peers and mock them.
This. Conservatives will be pleasantly surprised at how capitalistic the current HS/college crop is. They may not be as socially conservative, but they are completely opposite of the Marxists of the past 10-15 years.

It's pretty lucrative, for a good one. The tools are generally pretty lightweight too.

Sorry to break it to y’all, but raising a son with balls and a backbone starts young. You can’t wait until college years.

Feel zero sympathy for weak minded people.
I wouldn't even hire that cuck to do my plumbing.

And yet another case of absolute parental failure...

This is one the most underrated professions. My client is a mater welder and makes his own hours and is in high demand. He can name his price and they gladly pay him. Has travelled the world!

A plumber? I see a lot of crawl spaces in his future.
If I was starting out learning a trade, I would go with locksmith.

A plumber that is on point with technical and people/customer skills will make good money. Especially if he can get his own shop going and instill that in his employees.

How many tree crickets did he save in his 20's?
When you turn 18, you learn a trade while working.
You are an adult. Parents need to make this very clear.
The 18 year party ride ends.

Ditto!
My 21 year old step son is half Black/Mexican. Entering his 3rd year at LSU and works 2 jobs while serving in the La Air National Guard. Pays for his own college and living expenses. He's 100% MAGA and all his friends are as well! He has experienced racism while in HS, but he sees thru all this BS!

What does this mean? I have plenty of liberal friends that while their beliefs are imo a bit wacky are still functional members of society.

He is now hoping to enroll in a local trade school to become a plumber. It's a sad story to hear from the mother and to realize that these kids are supposed to be the future of our country. Down vote away. Comment that none of this happened etc. I don't care. I just wanted to tell the story in case it could be used for parents of liberal millennial to help their kids realize that twitter and things like the CHAZ/CHOP is not real life and it will eventually catch up with them.
If he carries through with his commitment to become a plumber he may also be saved from his leftist indoctrination. Non union plumbers are generally pretty conservative politically, it's what happens when you have to be accountable and work hard for your money.....if he goes to a union plumber apprenticeship program...well that could stifle his ideological turnaround.

Most millennials are a product of excess materialism and pop culture.
My parents taught me very few lessons, most of the life lessons I learned were from church or Christian organizations along with movies/tv.
Both my parents basically worked and drank alcohol in their off hours. Made real good money but never ever stepped out to guide me or my sibling down a good path or a path that made us productive members of society. Sort of cared about school, cared a lot about sports of course.
The boomer generation was wholly unequipped to raise children and right now we're seeing the fruits of their labor. The millennials didnt just wake up and decide to become what they are, they were raised to be what they are.
A generation raised by video games, the internet, pop culture, and universities with parents who made plenty of money but rarely taught their kids any lessons or guided them.

Just FYI. I was on a conference call with a Life and Health General Agent. In February and March actuaries and underwriters were freaking out about Covid-19. Not any more. Now they are freaking out about suicide and the very real mental health crisis we are having right now. Life expectancy in the U.S. had already decreased two tenths of percent due opioids over doses and suicide.
In short Covid deaths not even a blip on the radar. Mental health and suicide huge concern.

If you care to share that info with us, and it's OK if you don't, may I ask: Which denomination of Christianity do you recommend? Can you tell us why?
Thanks.

They will have a big challenge if they try to de-throne the Marxists that will be running the USA in the foreseeable future.
