![]() Sorry redbird4848 I didn't know that you started this discussion yesterday morning on the "Truck Nuts". Maybe I should pay better attention next time before I start a thread on a new subject, well I thought it was a new thread. Sorry about that big guy . |

i agree with other poster...kids now days do have it to easy...when i was a kid, im 36, so not THAT long ago....lol, we lived for being outside...hated the call to come in...and only outside toy i had was a bike, and i rode the stuffen out of it...lol i was never bored, and we had 3 channels(as the song goes..ya had to get up to change) and nearest video game was a pinball in town...lol today, house is in "green day", i allowed tv or radio in living room, kids complained all of 5 min(i was suprised!) and sun came out, so out they went...they have been occuping themselves, even my 6 yr old, who lives for his cartoons, my 13yr old who lives for his video games...my daughter has complained about no radio in her room, but then she found a book to read...and was content...lol. see...just takes a little tough love and they can do it...lol kids now days need this reminder to be "kids", maybe it will mean less kids walken the streets, joining gangs...and above all, less overweight and more active.
on other comment a poster put, kids as adults, still living at home, dont work..etc...i agree...whats with that?? as a kid, if i wanted extra money, i mowed yards..painted fences, etc...nothen got handed to me. i see kids now days that dont have to clean their rooms, take out trash..ect(who else watches Nanny 911????lol) and yes, their haven fmailies when they cant fend for themselves yet, its nuts!!! i tell mine, if you truly need the help(layed off or something) i will help with what i can, but if ya start a fmaily and get lazy, i wont support ya!!! guess im old fashioned. |

I remember when one of my sisters got pregnant at the age of 17 and my Dad sent her butt packing out the door. In his words "If you think your woman enough to get pregnant, then you woman enough to do it all on your own". And needless to say, I don't blame him a bit. He always told us boys that if we got a girl pregnant then be a man and take care of your problems on your own. He was real old fashion, but I love and respected my parents deeply.

(in addition to supervising their kids), there'd be a LOT fewer of those problems... Am I the only one who's noticed the absence of MK? ![]() (Hope he's okay in OK.) |

Good thoughts, Harley. I'm going to start a new job in three weeks. Since I live in a big city for now, I'm planning on taking the bus to work, most of the time. It'll be a long commute, but it will save the money I would spend on gas.
