I have no children but I feel being able to do my DIY/crafts is an empowering thing. I grew up with a dad who was a carpenter and thought that females should know how to do basic skills in carpentry, plumbing and electrical, as well as car basics. Never having married I am so glad because any home I've lived at needed upkeep and knowledge of painting, and all the above have saved me $$$ over my 68 years. Of course at times a pro needed called, but I am so thankful for the DIY skills. And I have done so many crafts that give me great pleasure that sometimes incorporated them as well. So, thanks Dad and thank your kids!
