Never mind teaching sex-ed.
You can't after all the younger generation think they invented it (just like we probably did).
Never mind teaching sex-ed.
My son came home from school one day and proceeded to tell my wife what his rights were. What she could and couldn't do, and started being a little turd. Said if she didnt like it, he would call the number the school gave him and report her. Mind you at the same time, my wife was 7 months pregnant with our youngest.
Wife said ok. When my son got home from school the next day, his room was completely cleaned out. Except for a bed, and enough clothes for the week. Toys, books, and trinkets were gone. My wife moved everything to the shed and locked it up.
Son freaked, wanting to know where his stuff went. My wife proceeded to inform him of her rights, and what she was required to supply as a parent. It took him about 6 months to earn his stuff back
I believe work ethic is all pretty much a roll of the dice, you do your best as parents and do a whole lot of praying:laughing:
I've just seen too many siblings come from the SAME house and how they could turn out so differently as grown adults is beyond my comprehension.

It's always best (and most importantly with women) to surround oneself with people that can drag you up and not down. A good woman can really bring out the best in a man.
I have a story about leaving the lights on..
1st time I was "explained why" they need to be turned off when not in my room..
2nd time I was "reminded why" they needed to be turned off..
3rd time the light bulb was gone..
& being the smart guy I was, I went & "found" a light bulb.. it just happened to be next to Dads, Easy Chair..[not smart]
4th time, the ENTIRE light fixture was taken out of the wall.!!!!
I learned.. it took a while, but I learned..lol
