They say that children close their ears to advice and open their eyes to behavior. I guess there's a certain amount of advice I've always ignored, because it came from those I can't trust. There's this saying I happened upon that went something like the person who has accomplished their best according to their knowledge at the time is a success although the world may put him down as a failure. That goes for singles and parents. That's the best advice I've gotten, that if you try and have tried your best, then feel great about yourself.

It's a shame that many do not try their best, but depend on others. Your advice is right on!

Good thinking. What is true today, might not be tomorrow and may not apply to everything. The best thing I've read about parenting and children is there are no hard fast rules.

I don't know if I'm one of 'those' you can trust or not, but, here's my 'two cents': Each step forward is a success and reaching the goal is the 'Coronation' of all your successes.
