Hi!

Actually, you do choose your parents. If your upcoming life situation is too difficult to handle, you can get re-assigned. It doesn't happen too often, because God doesn't put you in situations you can't handle on purpose. He wants to see growth, so he tries to challenge you-not crush you.

The feminist agenda WAS about power. In the past, in many cultures, men had virtually ALL the power because they could physically conquer the women.

However, in today's world, the balance of power has already shifted to the women. They WILL be in control. Many guys don't like that, but they had the power for millions of years. If you can't take a woman with power, don't come back to earth next time.

What SHOULD a woman do? Whatever is best for them. Some women want to work only. Some want to stay home only. Some want to work, and then quit to stay home with their kids. Others want to have kids AND work outside the home at the same.

What is best for kids is a good, solid family and a larger group of people that love the kids and will help them.

If you have a stay-at-home mom with an abusive father who beats everyone, that is BAD. If you have two parents that work a lot, and you have great support at home (nanies, relatives, friends who are GOOD with the kids) then that is GOOD for the kids.

There is no BEST way to do it-there are many ways.

Also, sometimes kids from the BEST homes are BAD, and kids from the WORST homes are GOOD. Sometimes it doesn't matter what you do, the kids just turn out BAD or GOOD regardless.

When I'm flying, I want the best person next to me. I don't care what they are, as long as they try hard to do a good job.

The military, as with all jobs, should be open to all. If you're good, you get the job. If you can't meet the standards, or you have a bad attitude, you shouldn't get the job. It's crap to exclude women from jobs because they're women. It's also crap to give people jobs just because they're female, or male, or whatever.

God Bless You!

Stop having children!!!!!!!!Right now, they are tearing down the preserve behind my house to build a sixth, that's right, sixth elementary school within two miles of each other! Don't you think there is something wrong with that? How many elementary schools were around your particular area when you were growing up? Thanks, parents. Now, the beautiful deer that used to show up in my back yard are gone!:angryfire

It is a good thing your parents didn't stop having child(ren)!

Schools can help increase the value of your house and neighborhood...

Plus, most kids, the behaved ones with at least one parent around, don't poop in the perserve!

Children can do things most adults can't: kids don't hold grudges and they love unconditionally... Your deer may look beautiful and taste yummy but they won't make the world productive in 18 years....

I love my folks dearly, but I never would have known.

True Dat. Already did. not worth 18 + yrs of he11 for me, however.

Would rather have poop in the preserve than YOUR kids smoking in there, dropping a cig, and starting it on fire!



Children can do things most adults can't:

Did you have kids just to see what they can do? Just go to your local supermarket. See the pi$$ed off expressions on all of the parents in there.


kids don't hold grudges and they love unconditionally...

Actually pets are more like that.


Your deer may look beautiful and taste yummy but they won't make the world productive in 18 years....

Oh yes. Must have children to make the world productive.
 
Something tells me that Rez's kids haven't quite hit elementary school yet. He's still pretty impressed with himself and thinks he knows all there is to know about this parenting thing. Give him time.

fyi Rez - At 18 they still aren't too productive but they cost a bundle.

And neither are you.... its still about you..... which in actuality means it isn't about you....

The more you give the more you get.........

Cliff, are you nuttier than a bag of peanut M&M's or what? Thanks for telling us how IT is!

Up to what age? Kids can be very very cruel. Look at some of the things that go on in schools.

Kids and schools add value to a home? After all the tax increases due to all the schools, I think it's a wash if you are lucky.

And who shows them how to behave that way..... Or not to be have that way....

Just to add to my last post (I couldn't edit it for some reason)......

I have seen my mom (awesome woman) do things that are wrong.....I could just do the same crap (which I don't because I don't agree with it or whatever) and blame it on her but the fact of the matter is is that you can't blame all of someone's behavior on their parents.
 
Well, I know what you are getting at.....sure, parents do but the reality is that kids are influenced by more people than just their parents.

A friend is a school principal. A collegue at another school who issues laptops to students found a video of the student doing two guys. They called the Mom and and Mom was shocked. When Mom pressed the girl as to why should would do this she cried "Cause I saw you do it Mom!"

Mom shut up and shrunk in her chair....


Aw...that is cute...kids are influenced by thier peers.....

Can I hold the peers accountable?


When I grew up if a teacher called my house and said I was misbehaving my parents took the teachers word, got down to the bottom of it and corrected my behavior....


Today, when a teacher talks to a parent about poor child behavior the parent denies and makes counter accusations.... not my kid!

Unless of course there is video of your daughter doing two guys and she says she learned from you......
 
You better behave then Rez. (if your kids catch you and the wife having sex, does that mean that they are now allowed to have sex too? or does it mean that now that you have kids, you no longer have sex?)

You are totally right. That's completely f***ed up but that's not my point. My point is is that kids are influenced by more people than just their parents. I don't know what you could do to others as far as holding them accountable but you sure as he!! shouldn't necessarily hold parents accountable for every little thing a child does. You cannot control every single thing your kid does.
 
Oh God, I have watched tis thread deteriorate to this level, and now I need to jump in.
My discaiimer:
I have one child, a daughter, who has just turned 30. still single.
Our family is still 2 parents, but both had full time careers from her age of 2.
I owned a FBO an charter company during all of her high school and college years. So, how many hours did she see me at home? But, she did see what I was doing, and why. And, that instilled a certain work ethic and drive, which I hope she uses today.
Now:
Yes, as Mega states, kids are infuenced by many people other than their parents over the years. But, they still need to get the "basic" infuence from home. Home can be the parents, grand parents, whatever. But, home is where all the good, OR NEGATIVE, is instilled.

Parents, as much as we want to be, CANNOT BE THE BEST FRIEND from age 0 to 18. After that, be a good friend, but be a parent. If it isn't right by then, too late anyway.

Do parents make mistakes??? Of course. Did anybody here get the manual? Did your parents show you the manuel they got????
Nobody is truly prepaired to be a parent, I know I wasn't. Did I make dumb mistakes? You bet. Will my daughter make some,, I'm sure. Hey, Mega,, you think you won't? I know you are way too intelligent to know better. It is a changing thing, that none of us get any schooling for.
But if you care, spend time, make the best of the TIME YOU HAVE, and it will all work out.
By the way, I never, ever spanked my child. We had the count of one, two, three. If she missbehaved, we just started counting s l o w l y, one, two, three. She knew something bad was going to happen at three, and even as an infant, knew she didn't want to get there.

Best to all parents, and those heading that way.

Nope. I am perfect now, therefore I will be a perfect parent......teee hee

I agree with you.
 
Wow, and to think of all the sacrifices we took working our schedules that our kids never even needed a nanny. Yes, I guess we failed, if failing means straight A students, top colleges in the country and nationally ranked swimmers. How are your kids turning out so far? I see "emo's" in your future.


What are emo's? I thought it was a kind of punk music.

It is different in Corporate or Fractional. In Flexjet we both flew different fleets, and only ever met at the mtce bases.

We flew together in the early days, and it was great, most companies would not be happy with this option.

Currently based 5000 miles apart, we meet perhaps once every 3 mths. Not certain if that is the good news or the bad news.
