Likewise.
As our daughter was raised also. Her first job @ 14 was getting up at 4 a.m to feed cows at a small family run dairy.
She's worked since then, including a 5 yr stint in the .mil.
Has run her own business since 2017, as well as raising and selling livestock for a hobby. Not bad for a soon to be 37 yr old .
