Plodding On Forward
We're doing our best but so many are fine with keeping Americans in chains by lack of education or "bread and Circus' " ~ I'm amazed at hos well that works and how many swallow the B.S. hook line and sinker .
We gave each boy his allowance Tuesday and then one was willing to help with a $2 tip, the other had a hissy fit, sigh .
Then today Friday, this same boy was waiting for me in the store and when he realized I had no change and so was going to break a $20 bill, he quickly handed me all the change in his pocket so maybe I'm getting through .
I understand better than many how important it is to teach kids the little things in life so the don't get blindsided or made fun of .
I'm flabbergasted at how little I knew when I left home at 8 Y.O., I make sure our boys know, they're still typical teenagers and so on but failing to teach them the basics is un American and cruel IMO .
I so envied foster kids when I was young, three hots and a cot sounded pretty good to me .
