What is it with these irresponsible parents? It boils down to family and parents putting in the work. Like I said before, consistancy is the cornerstone of child-rearing and it is tough to do. It takes time and perserverance. The sins of sloth and pride keep parents from doing their job. <BR/>Whew! What a rant! Thank goodness I have Jesus in my life or things like rudeness and selfishness would drive me crazy.<BR/>Holleywindycornerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06034056242158207107noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8317781713670438241.post-2642699814672278242008-09-22T05:50:00.000-05:002008-09-22T05:50:00.000-05:00About that shirt, $20 is super pricey to me too!

And b/c it's cute of course.Lindseyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00516263617427829737noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8317781713670438241.post-30402251892348025892008-09-21T18:47:00.000-05:002008-09-21T18:47:00.000-05:00I agree with Tonja and Leah.

I work in public education and I do have some very well mannered and sweet kids.Lindseyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00516263617427829737noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8317781713670438241.post-86929236572550386932008-09-21T16:55:00.000-05:002008-09-21T16:55:00.000-05:00Girl, let me step up on my soapbox!! :) I agree ...Girl, let me step up on my soapbox!! :) I agree with Tonja, completely! I was ALWAYS told, you get in trouble at school and you'll be in trouble at home! We live in a society with no regard or respect for anything. And we have parents who have completely catered to their children, never telling them no about anything and unfortunately they grow up expecting the same from everybody else! No wonder our economy is so messed up, we live in an instantaneous society that never waits for anything, no matter the consequences...except now, it's not mom and dad bailing them out, it's our government and ultimately us the taxpayers. (OK, I'm getting down now!!) If you're ever in Montgomery, I'd love to meet you! I think we're kindred spirits! :)Leahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11402652894747062881noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8317781713670438241.post-48588438548702189482008-09-21T14:45:00.000-05:002008-09-21T14:45:00.000-05:00There is no excuse for it.

They don't respect morals, values, marriage...nothing is sacred anymore...and it trickles down to the children. So very sad. I knew I did not question or talk back to my parents or teachers. If I got in trouble at school...I was in even bigger trouble when I got home. And that is the way we raised our boys. Today, parents all seem to want to get their kids out of trouble, and they never have to suffer the consequences of their actions. Sad, sad, sad.Tonjahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08699862913139313405noreply@blogger.com
