One thing missing from that list...MANNERS!
I have no clue how my generation of parents have failed so horribly at teaching their children basic manners and respect. Please, thank you, hold doors open for others behind you, do NOT whiz past people carrying an armful load of bags on those stupid healys or skateboards, don't cut in line, and just all around horrible manners.
Nikki - LOL! I think that was my kid wearing the AC/DC tshirt
My kids have been exposed to all kinds of music and right now their faves are very old bands. They are slowly getting more into the mainstream today's current music, but they do indeed love the old stuff.
Mistakes I've made (plenty) but one is not trusting my kids due to my paranoia of things. My oldest is 11 1/2 and when I think of all the things I used to do as a kid but he isn't allowed to do because of how society has changed so much, it's sad. I'm learning to balance this out better but do feel I should have started letting him do some things earlier than I did. Kids can't learn to make good choices later if we don't allow them to actually make any choices when young, kwim?
