Kids Today Need What We Had When We Were Young

I grew up not so priveleged either.
I tried to make my kids work for what they wanted. Half worked.
My son just closed a deal on a house.
Daughter is learning the hard way,learning how to make ends meet. Has a hard time holding a job, attitude keeps getting the better of her.
My grandparents all came over on the boats from england, and started out with virtually nothing.

I disagree with AJ, the electricity thing.
Its the easy access to worthless information thats making the minds of our children weak.

Agree.
My children turned out fine dispite me. my son told his teacher on his first day of school when asked. what do you want to be when you grow up.
He came home with a note. Your son said he wants to grow up to be a bad example like his father. Please explain.
The ex did a fine job raising them.
