Example to your children, regardless of their age! (Or your's for that matter!)


Yesterday I was behind a blue Caravan, here in Windsor Ontario, yep a "soccer Mom" car and beside the license plate was the above pic. Beside the driver, don't know if it was Dad or Mom, was a kid. So... when the kid says to Mom, "kiss my ass," how does she respond? Is she shocked? Dismayed? Horrified? Angry? Well... maybe Mommy Dearest, you should look in the mirror. Same as all the tough guys with Calvin, of "Calvin & Hobbs" fame peeing plastered on Ford F150's all over the road. When your little boy pees on your sofa, get over it.

We, as adults are meant to set the example. Swear like a trucker in front of them, what the "he, double hockey sticks," do you think you're going to hear from your little angels? Teach them to cheat, lie, bully and steal by example... surprise... you reap what you sow.

I despair for today's society. The English language, manners and doing what's right is apparently only something with which I am concerned.
