Ten Random Thought and Free Giveaway

in #contest6 years ago (edited)

Random Thought -- My youngest son did not go to tech. school today. He said he was sick but he can stand up.... My standard is if you can stand, you can work, take asprin.

He is about to get a large dose of tough love. He is 18 now but enjoys a friendly home atmosphere, and some life lines, like low rent, small amounts of money here and there. He doesn't know it yet but that just changed, at least for a while.

I stopped spanking all my kids around 9-12 and moved more groundings and letting them make there own choices, even when they were bad choices unless it was a major one. My hard lines are no drugs and you have to be working or going to school to learn a skill.

He is getting to close to hard line number two for my taste.

(my mother just laughs when she hears my kids are acting up, it seems I was, cough, challenging to raise)

I will be giving 4, 50% votes. To enter leave a comment on this post. Winners will be chosen at random on 7/12.

It will hit him eventually. Some rearrangements might be indeed necessary to further make him think about bigger perspective on life. Best wishes to you and your family!

We have to find a balance between guiding their path and allowing them some freedom of choice so they can learn from their mistakes and their successes.

My son is many years away from this experiences, he is still a kid. I wish you luck with your family. God bless them all.

Best regards.

Congratulations you win :)

Thank you! I wasn't aiming for this! Thanks for it!

Tough love if you don't want to study. Then you think that you can survive on your own skills. Mine is about the same age . He realised very quick that he needs to see things my way for a bit

You have to analyze it and see what its strengths are and what things you can do in life without studying. Obtaining one or several trades is fundamental without having to reach a university career, so that you can have a comfortable life and be a person of profit, responsible and an example of life.

They will understand the very good intentions you have for them. I miss my dad.

If hes 18, let him be while you watch over him at the same time, its called youthful exurberance sir, you can pray along with him if youre a christian father and maybe also share some real life experiences with him.
If you want him to start working, there is nothing bad in that.

Is that there are days when you really do not want to do anything, even worse is to be sick but you have all the right, you must teach discipline, is what really makes a good citizen and even more that is beginning to be an adult. I think that what you do for him is correct, eventually he will thank you. That reminds me that I must go to classes and I have the desire to go at its minimum level.
