    There may be room for error now days but in the old days there was no room for error. My dad was born in the 50’s and his dad the 20’s, his dad the 1890’s. In the old days if you messed up it was a back hand across the the face for next to nothing. Thank God my Dad didn’t carry that thru to me but perfection is the expectation. So, I understand why my Dad expected perfection out of himself and I tried to model myself after him.

    Brother. We are not creators. We are just doers.
    And being a doer it's pretty easy.
    And anything a doer does another doer can do it too.
    All it takes is to love to do it.
    And learn how to do it.
    Simple enough
    Let's get to it, then.
     
    Wargames and Midwest Trucker Thank this.

    A good trainer should have made you understand how it's done.

    I really like your approach.
    But, why do you choose the easiest way?
    Why are you afraid of?
    Being charged with rape?
    I know we males are risk takers.
    What risk are you taking when training a female?
    Tell me. I want to know.

    Technology has nothing to do with being good at doing it.
    Either you are good or you are bad.
     
    Wargames Thanks this.

    You got it wrong brother.
    To teach someone is to give yourself and all your experience, good or bad to them.
    With the purpose to make them better than yourself.
    If you can't do it, then don't do it.
    It's as simple as that.
     
    Magoo1968 and Wargames Thank this.

    Call me an old relic, but I could never call me a proud momma.
    Should I start learning something new?
    LOL.
