Go to Post I don't understand why it should matter if your robot is 100% student built, 100% engineer built or somewhere in between. As long as you are Inspired (I word again) FIRST is getting its point and primary goal across. - [more]

Re: why do we mentor?

I tell my kids (the robotics team, not my own) that I am counting on them to make my old age easier.

In reality, though, there are two reasons. One of the Starwars books said it best. The bounty hunters have a saying "If you only take care of your own, you aren't a man." I belive this. And its fun to watch them develop and grow and when they get the 'lightbulb moment'.

Last, but not least, I love playing with robots.
