She grew up to be a really nice homeschooling mom if you can believe it.

At a reunion, i noticed most of the wilder kids in HS had become the stay-at home moms, attorneys, etc, and the good, clean kids, if they were still alive, were all drunk, doing coke in the bathroom, and generally unhappy with life.

So Travis, that begs the question, where you one of the wild kids or one of the 'good, clean' kids?

Those are good stories, but those are rarely the results.

Good kids usually end up being good adults, and bad kids usually follow their current course.

Not suprised.

The kids that do better in life are the ones that have a LITTLE rebellion, but know where to draw the line.

The “wild kids” and the “good kids” are two sides of the same coin. They don’t know where the line is so they go to the extreme in one direction or the other. It isn’t surprising that when a wild kid decides to clean up they go to the extreme other direction (and visa-versa for the good kids.)
