Then I'll be the devil's advocate...why didn't their Father, Uncle, Grandfather, neighbor, coach, teacher etc show/teach them?

I understand there needs to be self-motivation but having someone older/wiser show you something makes it a lot less intimidating, even simple things.

But that said a lot of young people myself included turn to the Internet/Youtube on how to learn certain things.


Because many of them don't have ANY kind of strong male influence in their life to learn from so most common sense and mechanical/physical and mathematical science kind of knowledge has been lost.
