Passing of an Era in Young People?

Is anyone here mentoring someone in the car hobby? P-car or other?

Just curious as it seems to me that young people, teenager's specifically are just not wanting to learn about cars, the hobby or even performance related wheeled stuff anymore.

Been through a handful of young people at my church and it seems fruitless. I don't really have any end expectations other than are they willing to learn and work? ....................apparently not.

We have a medium sized 275+ congregation with a very active youth program. Put the word out again..................crickets.

OK - says I - does anyone want to make some extra cash helping me with yard work and other things house and possibly auto related?.......................................... ....crickets.

Recently I went just short of advertising in the local online paper for any to all the above. I've asked around. I'm easy going / fairly generous in giving back to others and a good amount of patience.

For now - I've put that on hold as the fall / winter season is about here and I don't have the time or projects where I need inexperienced / no experience help.

What say y'all?
