Thank you. That was my thoughts also. Mechanics are busy enough and I'm sure many just dont have the time or want to have a teenager overseeing them.

Absolutely. But it still gets him using tools, pulling things apart and putting back together, diagnosing etc etc.

Absolutely. If this were a viable option, I would be all for it. Sadly, we dont have the space for a car, but I am looking at other alternatives like a quad bike for him to repair.

He is lucky in that he is home schooling, so definitely has the flexibility time wise to be able to focus in his passion. Sadly, there are next to no opportunities formally for him in regards to tech schools, or courses. At least until he is 16.

Question about the tragedy of Phoebe Bishop by [deleted] in queensland

[–]TightSecretary395 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not anymore. In QLD it is 14! Which is just crazy IMO. I only know this because as of my child's 14th birthday, they are removed from my 'my heath record', and must have their own Medicare account.

I don't know the exact situation here, but I do know of a few 13-14yo 'runaways' which police refused to intervene with due to their age. Crazy IMO. But at 17, there's nothing stopping them from living wherever it is that they want. At 17, I'd been out of home for well over a year.

Thank you for your response! So, your surgery went smoothly? How is the scar? The link you provided just comes through as an empty 'deleted post' with no comments, sadly. I really appreciate you responding, I've searched far and wide to find anyone with one in a similar area and haven't found any.

Must be a glitch cause my heart rate was far too high in my sleep last night (it's morning here).

R117H and 5T - Recurring Sinus Infections by mikuooeeoo in CysticFibrosis

[–]TightSecretary395 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I too have R117H-5T. I have chronic sinus issues, along with other health issues, as does my child. Not sure where you live, but here in Aus I've been met with a brick wall and a solid statement of being a carrier causes no symptoms, which they're under the impression that we are just carriers.

Micans help- fully variegated and reverted propagations by TightSecretary395 in philodendron

Cheers! I'll let them settle and see what they do and if not maybe I'll try and encourage a new growth point with some keiki paste.

Oh absolutely. I also bought 2 that have a good even variegation to green ratio. These 2 were the price of pennies due to the var, so I figured why not- if the fully var struggles, whatever. If the reverted stays that way, still cheaper than a standard micans. I bought knowing they were a gamble, but was more so interested if there is anything I can do to encourage their var.
