I'm tellin' ya, the moral and ethical contract we have as citizens is gone, as well as our respect for nature. Didn't these "kids" learn anything in school?

Sometimes Farm Animals and City Folk just don't get along.

Yes, thank you kind sir. That horse just did not like that protester. Its kind of like trying to burn a cement or steel monument. These white kids are not doing themselves any favors but it is apparent that they don't have anything else to do, God forbid go to work and hold down a job like the rest of us.

If you are referring to learning in a college type environment, absolutely not. I am sure a lot of us on this site paid for our kids to attend college or for some part of their education. My requirement for my daughter was if I was paying then I expected results, this was not a paid vacation to party on the college scene.

I guess she listened pretty well, she is a Dr. of Physical Therapy today, owns her house, is getting married this October to her fiancee who also graduated with her in the same class, also a Dr. She will also have her school loans all paid off before the wedding as she is paying $1,000 per month to do the right thing and pay it back.

Boy, what would happen if we all had these type of expectations of our kids? We might not be watching the disgusting video's of kids that have no regard for being a true American.

Oh well, I could go on and on but will not because the people on this site are not the problem, we are exception.

Happy and safe July 4th everyone!

Unfortunately this is NOT how it went with my daughter (26). No matter how much I tried to tell her the school she chose was a "Party" school and not one that was going to make sure she had a job when she finished. I went to schools with her before she graduated high school and tried point her down the road of success, but she did not take my advice, and she is learning the hard way. As it stands right now, she is 100% off my payroll, and going to keep learning the hard way. Its very unfortunate to watch, but what can I do at this point besides make her look in the mirror? Nothing.

My son on the other hand (23) is taking longer to get through school, but he's going to have a job/career when he is done. And its taking him longer because he is working and paying for it as he goes. I'm fine with that, as he is not asking me for a dime. For now I have no problem supplying him with a sled to ride with me in the winter, as he doesn't have time to maintain his own, nor a place to keep it yet.

Strange how two kids from under the same roof can go in such different directions.....

We only had one but I have heard that every child is different. As for your daughter you can't do anything else other than what you are doing. Stay the course and I think eventually they come around if they want a normal healthy life with nice things. Good to hear your son is working toward a career as nothing is guaranteed these days just because you go and get a 4 year degree (most kids take at least 5 years)

I am so glad I don't have young kids now with COVID-19 and having to home school, no sports activities, etc to keep them busy. I am 63 and just have a hard time with all of this crap going on in the world today. Our parents raised us to respect people, work hard, and stay out of trouble. I might not have agreed with them back then but it was a pretty good plan and still is.
