[QUOTE="shorthairsrus, post: 370035, member: 219"] [B]Neither of my children would listen to me as far as careers. [/B] They started in a daycare that was very large and they just like a deer or pheasant any other animal they had to compete to be at the top. They competed all througout school intellectually; they wanted to be at the top. They both graduated from college early/ masters all while working at the same time OT. I never said one word about getting a job as soon as they hit 14 they had jobs. They excelled at work and that helped them make more than what most high schoolers made. I could go on and on I am not trying to brag seriously. ---- what worked for me as a parent -- dont give to much let them be hungry, expectations high when very young then back off, dispcipline when young. It paid off. [B]Basically its shorthair 101 training --- just like you train a shorthair do the same with your kids and they will excel to be the best. [/B] I never once said or provided my kids more then what my parents did for me. In fact I dropped the bar and provided less an[B]d that made em hungry. Sports[/B] - way overdone now days. To many and to much time spent on them. The balance when i went to school was ok -- now days its way overboard; the time spent is crazy . We need workers [/QUOTE]
