used to go out to a school that was in the neighborhood of a buddy of mine when i was in highschool used to listen to john lennon on my walkman and just get crazy on wacky tobaccy smoked out of an apple, aluminum can or one time even a hollowed out carrot would listen to cold turkey, whatever gets you through the night, would just sit and sing at the top of my lungs trailing off with the crazy thoughts in my head to this day i am surprised that i never ended up in jail for being and doing stupid things my parents raised me to respect myself and others, raised me to respect God and religion, guess it didnt matter i was going to do what mattered to me at that moment in time, which i guess was not much it couldnt have been or else i would have made smarter choices i am now scared outta my wits because i am not sure if i can come close to setting the example that my folks set and I STILL made HUGE mistakes as a kid

We have all made mistake and there is nothing we can do to make them go away. We are also never going to be like our parents, we might be similar in some things but not in everything. All we have to do is be our selfs and try our best in rasing our kids I sinces you had you moments you can actually use that information so you can see what your kids might be doing or my do. You might also be able to teach them that those things are bad and that they are never going to make you any better. I guess you have plenty of imagination on how to be with your kids and like I said all we have to do is try our best to show them the right path and love them all the time. Good luck.
