Words of wisdom from papa d

      Well it's back to school for the little kiddies. By now most parents have gone out to buy those back to school clothes. Yea, the low rider jeans, mini skirts. hundred dollar sneakers but are thees the type of clothes that should be worn in school or did you by them because that's what all the kids wear? Lets face it, if I'm a twelve year old boy with raging hormones and there's a girl in a mini skirt sitting across from me, I could have the best teacher in the world in front of the class, I'm not going to hear a word she says.

     Today our choices for our kids are being guided by the music videos they watch. Remember, you old people, Duck tail hair cut, side burns, slicked back hair during those Elvis days. Today though our kids are bombarded with sex and violence from music video and video games. It's on TV, at the movies. Go on the computer sometime. Any one can get into porno sites, even your twelve year old kids. How many parent sit down with their kids and watch these videos and say, change the channel t hat not what you should be watching, not very many. How many parents listen to the music they listen to, they'd be shocked by some of the messages they're sending our kids.

      More than ever today parents have to get involved with their kids and the things they are involved in, Be a parent, exert your authority. Your not a bad parent if you decide that some music or videos are not what you want your kids to see or hear, it's your job. Your kids may not like it but not all jobs are easy, hopefully someday they'll understand why you did it. Maybe when they have kids of their own. Remember, what goes around comes around. Someday they'll be in your shoes and will have to make these decisions for their own kids. If you do your job t.hey will be able to do theirs and make the tough decisions for their kids.
