To finish school and don't depend on someone to take care of you.


My mom was brought up that a man should the one to take care of you which i believe that also.





If i had a daughter (or ever do) i will tell her to not depend on a man for nothing.





The main thing though was to be happy
My parents told me to listen to that little voice inside that I'd hear/feel when trying to make a decision. If it made me feel hopeful, excited etc. then it was probably the right choice to make (as long as it wasn't illegal, immoral or life threatening). If it gave me a feeling of ';I don't know if I should do this... Then it was most likely not the thing to do. Often I'd ignore my inner voice and learn an unpleasant lesson.


One thing I'd tell my children, ';If it's illegal, immoral or life threatening, stay away from it.';
find God for yourself, and find yourself in God
don't call chicks broads, they don't like it
treat someone the way you like to be treated!! and i would say the same to my child
Don't get credit cards, pay cash for what you have, then you own it, they don't. Also, never abandon your children, no matter what
Do what makes you happy
