Redtom, my son is age 18 and he was never interested in what I do. I worked as a mechanic for 35 yrs and we never had that in common. I would ask his classmate in school sometimes what my son like best or was best at in school. they would tell me science. I did buy him a play station video game system when he was in 6th grade. Only because he told me all the other boys were trading video games at school and he didn't fit in with them any more because he didn't have a play station. I would play games on there with him and he always beat me which would make him laugh but feel good about himself. He is now off to college staying in a dorm only 45 minutes from home, better than driving that far every day. He is taking up Electricity and Control System Technology and is one of the top 3 in his class. My one regret is that I didn't go into electricity field. I now do plant maintenance where I work and get all the electrical jobs. I comes so natural to me. Any way your son sounds normal don't push him for what you want him to do or be because it'll never work.
