I really wish that had been my case.
But MY dad was in sales--and He DIED--when I was 7 years old.
This left my mom to take care of me and my sis. she di her best and I am very proud of her. She did her best to understand--and tolerate--my special interests.
However--some people who COULD have helped me to learn more--and even get into this field early--did NOT help me. At least one was a tv repair man, and for a VERY short time--it looked like he would "take me under his wing" , but he did NOT do so. Another was heavily into computer technology--he too had a chance--but passed on it for whatever reason.
A few even tried to PREVENT me from doing this sort of thing--trying their best to convince my mother to force me to "stop messing around with old tv sets and such". For a short time--they nearly succeeded. But after a short time--mom realized better.
So--I am m mostly self--taught. I had a BIT of help, here and there, but nothing consistent. Then I earned 2 degrees in college--one of which--my AAS degree--HAS helped me to 'get in doors"..
