The Bottom Line Children are our future. Our parenting skills are molding the future.
As a Mother of two teenage daughters I have gone through more heart ache than I thought imaginable. We are a close family have been mostly open about mostly everything. The girls have always been told they could come to us for any questions. However, what I have learned it that, there is a lot out there for them to learn. No matter what values and morals you have instilled in them. Heartbreak 101 starts now. 1. Friends: they can appear to be nice and of course they are all virgins and dont drink or smoke. They go to church and mind their parents and have never snuck out. They don't care to have a boyfriend and never would think about messing around. They study every night and all have jobs. A. Lies 95% lies. They do not want you to think they have picked friends who do not fit the perfect mold. I would not expect them to. What I want is honesty. My daughter does go to church and she the one is still a virgin and so forth and so on. I realize they have a lot of pressure but honesty with your parents is crucial. 2. Boys: They call non stop. They will call as early a 7:00 am on a weekend and as late as after midnight on any given night. They are all virgins they have the best intentions for my daughter and they all go to church. Well, this again is a lie. She never wants to bring any of them home to meet us. A. Lies 95% lies. We expect respect for her and us. We want to feel as though this male has the respect to meet us and take our daughter somewhere respectable. She deserves it as well, as the young man. Kids have lost respect for authority. We have lost respect for our kids. We work long hours we ship them to sports activities and daycare and leave them at home by themselves. We shove them off on babysitters and friends, and families. The schools are so big rarely are there compliments. If your child is flunky you do not know until the report card gets to you. IF it gets to you. I say you have every right to find out what your child is doing. My 19 year is a mother of a 2 1/2 yr old. She leaves out on her own and lives with her fiancé. BUT she says it is hard very hard. There is never any extra money and she gets by from check to check. But she is doing her best and it is working. I am sure she would have rather been in college. Watch your children have numbers of all their friends. Have the parents numbers as well. A lot of time the kids have cell phones and you have no number to the parents. Watch your childs behavior if you need to snoop, you should have a right to do this. It could be a matter of life or death. We only have one chance at being parents do all that you can to protect but not over protect. Do the right thing and spend time with your child. Learn what they like and who they like and learn to say I love you in the morning and a night. Let that be the first and last words they hear from you. |
