She knows deep down that she is safer with Teddy than out in the wild where she was found injured and malnourished. Rufus could learn a thing of two from her attitude. And then there is Baby Girl, who struggles with trust after being rescued from a cat hoarder. Every morning, Julie or I puts nuts on what I call The Play Structure—a cluster of feeding stations for squirrels that Teddy nursed back to health and slowly released back into the wild.

This morning, I evenly divided a bag of nuts into the bowls. My favorite part of the process was seeing the messes of broken shells that told me squirrels were here.

Friends were often supper guests, too. In times of need, dad would lend money to a neighbor or help him repair farm machinery. Growing up we didn't have much money, so we couldn't waste it. Dad and ma had to always watch every penny in order to make the monthly mortgage payment. For this reason, vacations, entertainment, and new clothes were out of the question. Dad always bought second-hand cars, and both he and ma bought used clothes.

We kids also always got our new school clothes from discount department stores. No indoor plumbing was the first inconvenience I endured during the first three years on the farm. We had an outhouse to use when the weather wasn't cold. During the winter, we used chamber pots in the house and always bathed in small portable tubs. The hot water for our baths came from pots of water which were heated up on a stove. The moral lessons learned from growing up on a farm have stayed with me over all the years.

I especially appreciate the lessons I learned about the importance of hard work and the value of money. There are too many spoiled young people today who need to learn the moral lessons which I have learned for life. If they did, I think the world would be a much better place.

Stella , I'm happy this hub brought back memories and that you liked it very much. What part of Indiana are you from? Paul, I remember my farm days from Indiana and the cold snow and the animals.

I had to learn the same lessons. Great hub, Stella. Thank you very much for your comments. If I were in America now, I would take you to visit my sister's farm. I'm happy you liked this hub. I've always lived in the city but wanted to visit farms more often, its the natural kind of living that makes me gravitate toward the country life, city is too much.

Thanks again for the comment. You're welcome. Young people nowadays want things to come fast and instant I am no exception. I won't say blame it on the technology that are readily accessible in the metropolis but I think they are the biggest contributor to this attitude and mentality of the youth. So yeah, living on a farm is the best place for a young person to be today. On a farm they will learn to work planting crops and domesticating animals and be patient as they wait for what them to grow and become ready for harvest.

Living on a farm is the best place for a young person to be today.

11 Life Lessons I've Learned From Living On A Farm

This is one of the greatest hubs that I've read so far! All you've said here are undoubtedly true and I can relate to them so much as I am a son of a former farmer. I can still recall how we planted crops, fertilized, and harvested them. Living in the farm really contributed on what and who I am today as a person. The same as what you've said, it made me value hardwork and money. This article made me think back the past years and miss rustic living.

Blessings to you also, and I appreciate you sharing this with your FB contacts. Paul, this brought back some memories of my own childhood, for sure. My father was raised on a farm and we lived on a farm in early childhood. Seeing my father in action, later on, in another profession, instilled strongly in me the value of hard work. All of the lessons you mention were a strong part of my childhood, learned from my Dad. Thank you for writing such a touching, sincere hub. I will be sharing this with my FB contacts, many who are family who either still farm, or grew up with this background.

Great hub! I really appreciate your comments on this hub. Yes, many younger folk would be hard put to survive today if they had to live like we did when being kids.
