This video has nothing to do with our topic, but my pastor showed it in church yesterday, and I thought it was hysterical… and true to life….

I want to know why my “minor” children were allowed to make a video without my “consent”…
And how did your church get ahold of my sons…?
Mothers Day Gifts:
Johnny 6: Stationary he made at school
MaryPat 10: A Padre Pio medal
Michael 21: A homemade card (a tradition – hallmark need not worry) and the news that he’s home for summer break…God have mercy on me!
Danny 25: A phone call(collect) from California…At least he didn’t ask for money!

Tommmy 26: He stopped by to tell me that he stole my vacuum cleaner.
All in all, a perfect day. And now there is today…oh well, it was nice while it lasted…

Too many of today’s children have straight teeth and crooked morals. ~Unknown high school principal
When I was a boy of fourteen, my father was so ignorant I could hardly stand to have the old man around. But when I got to be twenty-one, I was astonished at how much he had learned in seven years. ~Mark Twain, “Old Times on the Mississippi” Atlantic Monthly, 1874
Why do children want to grow up? Because they experience their lives as constrained by immaturity and perceive adulthood as a condition of greater freedom and opportunity. But what is there today, in America, that very poor and very rich adolescents want to do but cannot do? Not much: they can “do” drugs, “have” sex, “make” babies, and “get” money (from their parents, crime, or the State). For such adolescents, adulthood becomes synonymous with responsibility rather than liberty. Is it any surprise that they remain adolescents? ~Thomas Szasz

“The children now love luxury; they have bad manners, contempt for
authority; they show disrespect for elders and love chatter in place
of exercise. Children are now tyrants, not the servants of their
households. They no longer rise when elders enter the room. They
contradict their parents, chatter before company, gobble up dainties
at the table, cross their legs, and tyrannize their teachers.
