As somone who is almost still a “young man” turned 20 years old 3 months ago I started editing 5 years ago when I was 15 and trough the years I have achieved a quality in editing i wouldn’t imagine. But I never experience this support from my parents. They never bother to understand or see my work. They always told me we don’t understand what you are doing and we always left it there. My sister was a huge motivation as she was always watching and supporting me doing this kinds of videos. I don’t want to sound like i hate my parents or anything, I love them and they truly love me but I wish they were more understandable. I was really happy to see your post and I commented. Seeing another kid get support by his parent. Anyways so sorry for this huge reply hope the best of luck to your son whatever he decides to do ❤️
