wow it has been a while
parenting is tough as it is let alone talking about it... was it that hard for our parents, too?
i think the lines are too blurred right now, there are not definite borders for anything, nothing is what it seems, whats expensive might not be the best there is, most of our time is spent in  a virtual reality to escape the harshness of the real one..
You are stuck between trying to raise a good person without making him struggle for the rest of his life cause at this point in time everything stands in the way of whats right and tries to pull it fown to their level
