[QUOTE="kiwi pom, post: 7956265, member: 946"] I always find it quite sad when someone has built up a successful farm but their children don't want any part of running it. Obviously you shouldn't force them, they should do whatever they want (and perhaps be glad they've had a good start in life) still sad though. My dad was telling me the other day that the farmer who's parlour I learnt to milk in when I was a kid is selling his cows and renting out his ground as his children don't want to know. He was in the process of taking over from his dad when I started there while still at school in the 80's. I don't suppose it will be a working farm again:( [/QUOTE]
