The reason this world is so fucked up is because of the way we raise our kids.

You can't play dodge ball because little Timmy might get a bloody nose. "Tag" isn't allowed anymore because it might hurt the fat kid's feelings. Some schools don't give Ds or Fs because it makes kids feel stupid. Some schools don't use red ink when grading papers because red ink is too "stressfull." You can't make this shit up. No one is ever allowed to feel bad, ever.

These kids grow up to be whiney ass lazy peices of shit. Whiny ass lazy peices of shit that I have to deal with everyday. They think they are entitled to everything. Thats why this country is so far in debt. People complain about the government wasting money, but I firmly believe that people get the government they deserve. No one wants to save up to buy anything. They want everything NOW.

My philosophy, if you can't afford something, don't buy it. If you aren't ready for/can't afford to have kids, don't have them. Its not rocket science.

That's right, but I'm only punishing a very small percentage of people to help the masses. If you think about it, it's pretty righteous.

it took me nearly 9 years to get to this point as a parent. when i was getting divorced, i felt sorry for them & turned into quite the namby pamby mommy. they were turning into absolute spoiled little shits & i had only myself to blame. so i woke up & started being an actual parent. they might not like me at times but i'm cool with that.

and i completely agree with iron - what's wrong with this country is us!! we've ran it into the ground so far that we are screwed as a nation. but yeah, blame the dems &/or reps - it's easier & Lord knows everyone wants the easy way out.

+1 if it were applicable, obviously I'm a bit biased because you're raising your kids in a similar fashion to the way that I was raised but I think it's very important to teach them early on about the correlation between effort in and rewards out to avoid raising spoiled brats. I hope you're proud that your kids are more adult-like than millions of adults in this country.

i'm very proud of my boys. they've been thru hell & back in their short lives, had to grow up a little earlier than some kids, had to accept the fact that they have a dad who has lied to their faces, missed visitations with them, is an alcoholic but that he still loves them (hard concept for kids to grasp), that everything in the world does NOT revolve around them, & that i've tried to make the best choices i can so they can grow, thrive, & be protected. they're by no means perfect lil angels - they irritate the hell outta me sometimes but i have high expectations for them - it's not about grades in school, how many sports they play, or anything like that - it's about the way they treat people, the respect they show, & pretty much not acting like little brats. they talk about death & heaven alot - a product of losing their grandpa. they're fascinating little human beings & i love them to pieces.

You can bring up all kinds of tangents, but the bottom line is that most of wealth in this world has been ill gotton off the backs of indigenous people through deception and plain basic thievery. I'm talking about a reckoning because the seventh angel has been taking notes and his book is pretty full of the bullshit that the so called kings of the earth have been doing.

What I think I know is that it is time for each person to get "good with God" and clean his own house.
