I take my 8 year old son once in a while but he just doesnt have the patience to sit there even with his gameboy advanced in his hands. I dont push him to go at all but when he asks if he can go I brign him along, most of the time its short lived and he wants to go home, and so being the dad that I am i make the quick 2 minute drive back to the farm and drop him off with mom and head out to a different stand. Its just nice being there with him since hes in school all day and Im working all day. We dont see eachother much except on weekends that Im not working. My daughter really hasnt showed any interest in hunting...yet. Maybe when she gts older ill try taking her turkey hunting...
