My 8-year-old niece asked me why we fix things instead of just buying new ones

Honestly, she said 'Uncle Harper, your job is like giving machines a second chance,' and that hit different after a long day of replacing dryer belts. Anyone else get a surprisingly deep take from a kid about this work?

Wait, your niece is eight and she said that? That's crazy smart for her age.

Crazy smart for her age" is right, my five year old nephew just asked if my toolbox was my purse. So I'm over here getting roasted while you're getting life advice.
