We’re putting our 9 year old into the “Young Marines” starting Saturday; she’s enthusiastic and at least she’ll be on the right side of things.
I’m pretty confident that my kids are heading in the right direction also. My oldest son makes fun of me for being too liberal and I’m not liberal in the least. I believe in being extremely charitable because of my Christian faith and he sees me as being taken advantage of my undeserving people. I tell him that if I am being deceived, that is between the one deceiving me and God. All of my kids have really good heads on their shoulders, hang out with good kids who get good grades but who are also athletes. My boys are totally against drugs and every other sort of negative peer pressure they’re bombarded with. I’m very proud so far.
