Every man wants his son to be somewhat of a clone, not in features but in footsteps. As he grows you also age, and your ambitions become more unachievable. You begin to realize that your boy, in your footsteps, could probably accomplish what you hoped for. But footsteps can be muddied andt hey can go off indifferent directions.
My son Jody has hated school since day one in kindergarten. Science projects waited until the last moment. Book reports weren’t written until the final threat.
I’ve been a newspaper man all my adult life. My daughter is a university graduate working toward her master’s degree in English. But Jody?When he entered the tenth grade he became a “vo-tech student (技校学生) . They’re called “motor heads”by the rest of the student body.
When a secretary in my office first called him“motor head”, I was shocked. “Hey, he’s a good kid,” I wanted to say. “And smart, really. ”
I learned later that motor heads are, indeed, different. They usually have dirty hands and wear dirty work clothes. And they don’t often make school honor rolls (光荣榜) .
But being the parent of a motor head is itself an experience in education. We who labor in clean shirts in offices don’t have the abilities that motor heads have. I began to learn this when I had my car crashed. The cost to repair it was estimated at $800. “Hey, I can fix it,” said Jody. I doubt edit, but let him go ahead, for I had nothing to lose.  My son, with other motor heads, fixed the car. They got parts (零件) from a junkyard, and ability from vo-tech classes. The lost was $25 in stead of$80.
Since that first repair job, a broken air-conditioner, anon-functioning washer andanon-toasting toaster have been fixed. Neighbors and co-workers trust their car repairs to him.
These kids are happiest when doing repairs. They joke and laugh and are living in their own relaxed world. And their minds are bright despite their dirty hands and clothes.
I have learned a lot from my motor head: publishers need printers, engineers need mechanics, and architects need builders. Most important, I have learned that fathers don’t need clones in footsteps or anywhere else.
My son may never make the school honor roll. But he made mine.
