I have a hot button for those who pick on the smaller, younger, weaker, those-with-no-voice crowd. Once you've witnessed repeated child abuse at a time in history when domestic problems were easily overlooked by the law, you carry a perpetual sword and shield with you. It's impossible for me not to be judgmental of these folks.<br /><br />On the other hand, the last two - especially the dad - warmed my heart.

Their parenting skills were handed down to them. <br /><br />I took my daughter out on a special date for her 16th birthday. Just the two of us. Dinner at a real nice "get all dressed up" type restaurant, and a special gift from me to her that she will keep forever......I hope. <br /><br />I'm not a perfect parent, but at least I "get it".Mattyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13979949404266325705noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-269990339302416599.post-76788943272246538252009-11-18T23:02:21.626-05:002009-11-18T23:02:21.626-05:00My heart breaks for so many little ones out there....My heart breaks for so many little ones out there...why have kids if you're going to treat them like pets???Muthering Heightshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06660310558298459636noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-269990339302416599.post-65641042828829075762009-11-18T23:00:06.025-05:002009-11-18T23:00:06.025-05:00Thank you for your observations, both the good and...Thank you for your observations, both the good and the bad.
