Here here. I know lots of fams with many children (and some with few children) and when they learn to obey, be polite and think and speak coherently as early as possible, they RARELY turn out to be problem children...if ever. Being a Catholic, I cannot leave out that they learn and practice their Faith early. That doesn't mean you don't worry about them at times and that they don't occasionally screw up, but that's raising children.
I think Lt. Don is convinced I can't pay for my children, which is funny, b/c he has never seen my budget sheet or my tax return. Sure, a teenager might want a Mustang. I wanted a 560SEL when I was in 7th grade (or so - I'm 32)...did I get one? HELL NO! Connie is the oldest of 9 and they were dirt poor farmers...all the simblings are wonderful people, with good jobs and real/decent lives. Lt. Don must like getting me going on this, cuz he keeps bringing it up. I'm tired of answering. If my daughters are all drug addicts and whores in 20 years, then I'll go weep on his 72 year old shoulder...but till then, I'll just worry about being a good daddy. out.
