We are a couple who are building our own home from the ground up in the mountains of West Virginia. After living near the city our entire lives we finally decided to sell it all, pack up our 3 kids and live in an RV on our 73 acres while building our own debt free, off-grid house and learning to live a more self-reliant life.
Our house build is documented entirely on our main channel "Wild Wonderful Off-Grid" and our family life vlogs can be found on our secondary channel "Wild Wonderful After Show"

It is so encouraging to see parents teach their children to be responsible, and to introduce them to greater responsibilities in a timely fashion, rather than to wrap them in bubble wrap. Kudos!

@centosx 2 года назад

🤣 How times have changed... My parents didn't buy my vehicles. I had to mow lawns and detassle corn whatever odd end jobs cleaning up yards etc. Bought a moped at 14 paid for everything including insurance. Definition of teaching responsibility sounds like most Millennials these days...🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

@nathanasimpson 2 года назад

@@centosx I think you're missing the point. Think about how much further you could have made it if you could have bought a small truck instead of a moped because your parents knew they could trust you to take care of it and went 50/50 with you. Imagine that, after giving you more and more responsibility, they decided that after learning to change the oil, check your tires, knew how important road safety is, and the cost of ownership, you could have expanding your lawn mowing business with a vehicle and a better lawn mower with the help of your parents. That's how this works. You don't tell your kid to go work an entire summer for something that you already know they can handle, when you can more than afford to find their dreams and responsibilities, so that they can go further than you ever did. It's about developing a better legacy in your kids, not recreating it.

The greatest book of wisdom of all time says if you raise a child in the way that they should go, when they are old they will not depart from it. You two are going to leave the world with three wonderful kids. Marriage is a partnership, not a fairy tale. However, if you get the partnership right, the fairy tale will follow. You two have figured that out. I so enjoy watching you. My favorite vids of the week.

These 3 PRECIOUS gifts from God have anything but a sense of self-entitlement. For example...Carter being so thankful for the gift of the mini truck. You rarely, if ever see them sitting idly by w/an iPad/cell phone in their hand. Rather, they’re always busy about the family’s farm work. Reminds me of my mom’s stories of how they all pitched in around the farm, in the late 20’s/early 30’s. Refreshing!🥰
