Dear Karen,

I have been putting off transferring the farm to my son for a long time. I know it is old-fashioned, but I like being in control of the farm and although myself and my son have a very good relationship, and he is a great worker and very dedicated to the farm. I know I must put my feelings aside and transfer the farm to him as he is due to turn 35 in the next few months.
