[QUOTE="shorthairman, post: 248868, member: 6223"] I second the time spent with family/kids. My daughter is a freshman in college and my son is a 10th grader...what I wouldn't give to go back when they still wanted to hold your hand on a walk or put them up on your shoulders... I remember taking both of them ice fishing when their legs were to short to reach the ice sitting on a bucket. We spent more time "exploring" than fishing but boy do I miss it. "Let he who is without sin cast the first stone." I'm not a super religious person, and I have done my fair share of things I'm not proud of so I have no right to judge someone else. I try to get my kids to follow this when they start talking about what so and so did. I always tell them that you don't know the situation they are in. Everyone is battling something that most of us have no clue about, and to try to keep that in mind. I also try to tell them that there are only two things they can control. Their attitude and their effort. What kind of attitude they approach something with and how they go about handling it will determine the outcome. [/QUOTE]
