I agree with what ya'll are saying. I'm just saying that there are a lot of gray areas. I have teenagers also and, like many of you, they are allowed to have a couple of drinks at my home and they can not go anywhere if they have. I like to have a few drinks occasionally too. But boy do I get to see...

"Rednecks, White Sox and Blue Ribbon Beer". Can't remember who did it, though. Tom T. Hall? How about "The Perfect Country Song" by David Allen Coe There's no such critter. There is a song written by Steve Goodman called "You Never Even Called Me By My Name" that was c...

How about "The Perfect Country Song" by David Allen Coe

and Bobby Bear's "10"

This also becomes a case of "depends on your point of view". 2 weeks ago I had the worst call I've ever had in my carreer. A 16 year old, drunk, ran a stop light in her pick up and broad-sided a sedan that had a mother and her 2 kids- a 10 year old girl and a 6 year old boy. The mother was...

In our lingo 10-100 is an unattended death!

I grew up the middle child of three. And the only girl! Then my Mom got re-married and didn't think she could have any more but....
My youngest brother is the same age as my second daughter!!

OMG! I can't believe no one has posted anything post-concert! This concert was definitely the best one I've been to this year! Jimmy was in rare form! I absolutely need a copy of this concert. I had a GREAT time! I'm still crawling out of my alcohol haze. Just got home last night and had to be to w...

I always have trouble sleeping. Let's see, what did I forget?

Take Benadryl. Or Nyquil. It helps.

Its really good to hear all of this good stuff from you guys. Like I said, I see a lot of the worst of things, sometimes I forget that there is good out there too.

paradise, my house has always been the hangout. Partly for location, we're right on the beach, but also because people like hanging with my boys and they had more strict rules. It would amaze me. Some kids would stay at my house for several nights, not call their parents and their parents didn't ca...

I will say it again. You can raise good kids in this world-even today. My oldest is in college with an 4.0, she works full time. She just got married this summer and had a beautiful wedding at her grandparents home that did not cost 20 or 30 k. We made most of the decor and the food and she bought h...

No, I'm not a parent, but I do appreciate it is an incredibly complex and challenging thing to do well. To be consistent and persevere must take tremendous energy, stamina and love. To me, one lesson that seems to be getting lost is the difference between what one wants vs. what one needs. I realiz...

it's good to look at the teen/college years as self-reliance with a safety net. You let them make their own choices and own bad decisions. Then when they get consequences you are there to help them pick up the pieces, within reason. My sons didn't manage their money well over the summer. I allowed ...

kids (in general) these days don't earn much. they feel "intitled" to everything. (here i go...) in my day, even if my parents could afford it we had to pay part of what it cost for something other than the basics. so we learned to appreciate our things and not take them for granted. they...

Obviously you didn't drink enough.

I must need more practice.

About one ounce of chocolate per seven pounds of body weight is considered toxic (my dog is good for a couple, OK ten, hershey bars) You're getting close; actually its an allergic reaction.

Another plus to starting firm when your kids are young. You can in a sense relax as they get older. We are supposed to release our kids gradually a-s they get older. But if you haven't done your job when your kids are young you have a child who you don't trust to release. This makes adolescent rebe...

We should honor more good people in society both famous and average, everyday people.
