The figure 8 ... topled

in #opninion7 years ago

So here I am ... again....

Sitting here waiting for my son to finish with his math’s class (probably the only time I have to sit still and regale you with some of my stories.

These past few weeks have been insane. Not a single week night that I got home before half past 9 at night. Kind of a long day from half past 5 in the morning with 5 hours sleep. No wonder the older you get the less you sleep. This lack of sleep is mostly caused by more things to be done i.e. food, washing, dishes, pets, laundry, research for kids, guiding with ideas and grammar. Sometimes I worry that I help them from the ditch into the abyss... It is a never-ending circle of life.

No wonder parents suffer from “empty-nest syndrome”. Teenagers domineer your time and effort and your thoughts. Because I suppose that every parent want’s what is best for your child... Wait maybe not. What about parents who spoil their children?

So much so that they are actually brats. And by brats I mean really unpleasant selfish little sh*ts.

They don’t grow out of it you know.

Don’t you think it is a better idea to raise a child with manners and teach your child about responsibility and community? About caring and sharing?

I think that one of the most selfish thing a parent can do is to spoil a child. That child with be ostracized for the rest of his life.

Anyway. That is my opinion... Use it / Don’t use it
It is up to you
