Come on now...
I'm gonna call the cops b/c I have been on a drug binge and can't find my four year old...All the while he is with his dad and has been for days!
And this one...
I'm gonna cry b/c my boyfriend beats me up; but you can take my kids away and I wont shed a tear or even attempt to get them back when they start talking about my kids being adopted by total strangers!
Or...
I'm on work release and I just can't manage in this big world without getting trouble so I will stuff drugs in my daughter's diaper bag and swear they are not mine when I am arrested. Who would really believe that?
What about...
I just had a major life changing event and could have died...but I will not talk to my baby or wife any nicer and still be a total ass to the only ones who love me any more!
What in world is goin on here? My patience has grown WAY too thin. There is just no excuse for such stupidness. (I don't know if that is a real word, but it fits the need.) I will never understand the way some people decide what is relavant and what is not.
My priorities are not always perfect, but i try everyday to show to my children that they matter to me. I am guilty of not giving 100% all the time, but I try to make up for it when I am not in such a selfish mood.
I guess I was just worried about what people would think about me. Alot of people would say "Don't worry about what the world thinks." But in all honesty, I think I will. Because if I think the world is watching I will try that much harder to do the right thing. The one's who don't care about what the world thinks obviously don't care PERIOD! Or they would stop using that as an excuse for their selfish ways.
My goal is to do the best I can 100% of the time. I am not saying it's gonna be easy, but maybe my kids will learn something; like respect!
I totally agree!
