My 18 month old son has developed a worrying habit of standing in the garden pointing at aircraft flying overhead and shouting gibberish at them.

Is it inevitable that he will become an ATCO, or have I caught him in time to do something about it?

What do you say to a newly qualified ATCO?:

Here's a job and a decent salary :)

What do you say to a newly qualified ATPL?:

Big Mac and Fries twice please :(

I got the Flymo out today, to see if I could interest him in rotary flight, but to no avail.

On the positive side, I did get a flight information service, and now have a much neater lawn as a result of his guidance!

Hmmmm. In that case he's clearly already getting ideas above his station. If you were on a FIS, but he's bossing you around, giving you vectors and stuff, then praps he'll be looking for a job at Lydd??????
