Hi friends!  It’s almost time for County Fair here, and with that comes a lot of reflecting about the kids and their growth doing livestock projects.  Today we’re talking about the power of animals and livestock in the lives of our kids, and how responsibility, work ethic, and good mentors can launch kids into a new level of self-confidence doing hard things even when they don’t want to or they think they can’t. Whether you are interested in 4-H, FFA or giving your kids the responsibility of raising livestock outside of a formal program, this episode gives insight into some unexpected benefits when kids grow up raising animals.  Let’s get to it!   Related Episodes:   12 | Raising Kids and Livestock?
