 Subject: Just had to share this oneMessage: Middle Aged Woman A middle aged woman had a heart attack and was taken to the hospital. While on the operating table, she had a near death experience. Seeing God, she asked, "Is my time up"? God said, "No, you have another 43 years, 2 months and 8 days to live." Upon recovery, the woman decided to stay in the hospital and have a face-lift, brow lift, lip enhancement, boob job, liposuction, and a tummy tuck. After her last operation, she was released from the hospital. While crossing the street on her way home, she was hit and killed by an ambulance. Arriving in front of God, she demanded, "I thought you said that I had another 40 years? Why didn't you pull me out of the path of the ambulance?" God replied, "Girrrlllll, I didn't even recognize you!" |

No one was able to reach us all day. And we were O.K. We would spend hours building our go-carts out of scraps and then ride down the hill, only to find out we forgot the brakes. After running into the bushes a few times, we learned to solve the problem. We did not have Playstations, Nintendo's, X-boxes, no video games at all, no 99 channels on cable, no video tape movies, no surround sound, no cell phones, no personal computers, no Internet or Internet chat rooms.......... . . WE HAD FRIENDS . . . we went outside and found them! We fell out of trees, got cut, broke bones and teeth and there were no lawsuits from these accidents. We made up games with sticks and tennis balls and ate worms and although we were told it would happen, we did not put out very many eyes, nor did the worms live in us forever. We rode bikes or walked to a friend's house and knocked on the door or rang the bell, or just walked in and talked to them! Little League had tryouts and not everyone made the team. Those who didn't had to learn to deal with disappointment. Imagine that!! The idea of a parent bailing us out if we broke the law was unheard of. They actually sided with the law! This generation has produced some of the best risk-takers, problem solvers and inventors ever! The past 50 years have been an explosion of innovation and new ideas. We had freedom, failure, success and responsibility, and we learned HOW TO DEAL WITH IT ALL! And YOU are one of them! You might want to share this with others who have had the luck to grow up as kids, before the lawyers and the government regulated our lives for our own good. |

That post instantly put it in my head, and set me to singing! :^ ) ~~Teach Your Children Well~~ You who are on the road Must have a code that you can live by And so become yourself Because the past is just a good-bye. Teach your children well, Their father's hell did slowly go by, And feed them on your dreams The one they pick, the one you'll know by. Don't you ever ask them why, if they told you, you will cry, So just look at them and sigh and know they love you. And you, of tender years, Can't know the fears that your elders grew by, And so please help them with your youth, They seek the truth before they can die. Teach your parents well, Their children's hell will slowly go by, And feed them on your dreams The one they picks, the one you'll know by. Don't you ever ask them why, if they told you, you will cry, So just look at them and sigh and know they love you. ~~Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young~~ |

His father stopped by for a beer after work and saw him there. He turned his son in and then left him in jail overnight to think about it. |
| Barbara Wheeler IP: 69.19.14.42 1/20/2006 14:18:24 | RE: Just had to share this one Message: That will absolutely work. And the truth is that this is better parenting than covering up, lying, ignoring, and overlooking the obvious OBLIGATION we have a parents. Our children are only on loan to us. Our reward for rearing them properly is they turn out to be honest, law abiding, thinking individuals, responsible for their own actions, and accountable for those actions. My Dad used to quote this one to my brother and myself. "For every action there is an equal, yet opposite reaction!" Actions have consequences, weather they are good, or bad or indifferent, they are consequences none the less! |

A great book, one that my kids are reading as part of school (my choice, not theirs) is the O'Reilly Factor For Kids. It's NOT a political book, just a common sense one. |
