(Special note to idiotic parents I see in public, on the news and read about– No, the school system is not responsible for raising your children – YOU are. And no, kids don’t pick these things up on their own. They learn by what they see you do, how you act toward them, and how you treat others. If you are an asshole, guess what? Your kids will be too. Your children are watching YOU!) 1. Manners (especially in public) 2. Kindness 3. Affection 4. Integrity, Honor and Honesty 5. Work Ethic 6. Food Choices 7. Exercise 8. How to save money 9. Reading (Yes, YOU the parent should read to your children. Every day. From an early early age. Foster their love of reading and you will raise smart kids. This isn’t hard.) 10. Respect for the world they live in 11. Respect for others 12. Self respect 13. Discipline |
The purpose of the meme is to get to know everyone who participates a little bit better every Thursday. Visiting fellow Thirteeners is encouraged! If you participate, leave the link to your Thirteen in others comments. It’s easy, and fun! Be sure to update your Thirteen with links that are left for you, as well!
