! Raising is weird. There are times that you look at your and think you're totally screwing it all up. He won't still in class. He won't do his math homework. He talks back at every opportunity. He torments his sisters. He end up in detention after losing his cool and telling a classmate to "fuck off." (the needed someone to tell him that btw) He seems like this wild beast and you really fear he's not going to end a contributor to polite society. Then one day, he misses the bus, so you mutter under your breath and haul his scrawny ass to school. When you pull up, he tears out of the car, says a quick "bye mom" and runs down the side walk. You sit there watching him shove his way through , thinking he's being a brat, wondering why he's being so rough, wondering why he couldn't even say "oh and thanks for driving me, I love you." Then there's enough of a clearing in the swarm of that you can see your , your brat, on his hands and knees, helping a special needs classmate pick up all of the stuff that was knocked from his hands as the other hustled by him. 50 trying to get into school, not paying attention to what's going on around them. One on the ground, helping, showing kindness, and he's yours. Well, when that happens you'll most likely have to pull into a spot in the corner of the parking lot, maybe cry a minute, and realize that for all his faults, he's a pretty damn good . He's good at what's important, he can love and be kind and won't hesitate to jump into the melee to help. Maybe, just maybe, he's going to turn out alright. |

As a parent... I'm right there with you! They surprise us sometimes with the good stuff they actually were paying attention to and learning from us. Good luck with yours!! You can visit my blog here FreddiesFling!

If you don't feel like you're totally screwing it up, you're not a very good parent. IMHO anyway.
