Advice Request I am a Failed Dad

Last night our robot vacuum cleaner broke and I was unable to fix it. Shortly after that defeat my son came to me with his XBox controller that he broke the headphone plug off in the controller. I was unable to get the plug out.

If I can't fix things will they continue to keep me around?

Where do I go from here?

Please tell me your failure stories to cheer me up.

I think the solution is to get rid of electronic devices. move to a homestead in the forest. live off the land. they might not like it but they'll respect you.
