After three months, you'll know if an apprentice is right for you by watching their daily behavior. If they seem disengaged and only there because someone forced them, not because they actually want to learn, that's your answer to move on.
If somebody was thinking about taking on an apprentice, like, if you're 3 months in, how would you know that you're on the right track?
You'll know with the person that you've employed, because with an apprentice, they're with you constantly at work. Arguably, you probably spend more time with your apprentice than you do your family. If they just genuinely do not care and they're only an apprentice because their dad told them they have to be, then you can make that decision then.
