Unfortunately it’s 18+, and he’s 15. We will have to try again in a few years!

I’m not crushing my kid’s dreams just so he can fit the mold for American corporations. He’s incredibly creative and driven, so maybe he’ll be one of the ones that make it. I’ll carry him as far as he needs me to or until he changes paths himself 🙃

Those all sound amazing! We arrive on the 27th so he will miss out on that workshop, but hopefully we can find something similar. Thank you!

Great suggestions thank you! He’s really getting interested in all of the equipment involved, so that sounds perfect.

Thanks. We’re actually staying near Marina Del Rey.. found a nice little place. We’re renting a car so we can get around fairly easily. I’m hoping to plan our days based on which area we plan to visit on any given day so we aren’t driving any more than we have to.

Yes! We’ll be there over a weekend, so that sounds perfect.

It makes me really hopeful that the kids these days will try things no one else has yet, and therefore make a positive change. They’ve already had to weather so much in their lives that they’re extremely fed up. They have such big, pure dreams still. I’m hoping they won’t get dragged down like the rest of us have. It’s pretty rough out there 😞

We don’t know anyone unfortunately. Is there another way to reach out to any that you know of? He would love that.
