My poor mother was completely freaked out when she realized that even as a child, before I decided to do something, I'd parse out what the consequences of my actions might be, what the chances of actually getting caught by my mother were, and whether or not the chance and the consequences were outweighed by the results I would get from my actions . . .

I'm far more spontaneous and uninhibited now than I ever was as a child. Backwards ;)
I hear you there Renee.:)

see, the problem in my school with kids is their parents don't care what they do as long as they leave them alone. They are not involved with their life. If they were they would not let them hang out with the people they do. That rubs off on the kids. then they don't care what they do or who they hurt. They even hurt themselves by not pasing classes. The first semester my class(freshmans) had 2 "talks" with the principal over our grades and getting to class on time. there are 210 of us and 350 tardies IN THE FIRST SEMESTER!


My parents always encourage my brother and me to do what we love. As much as i argue with my mom and dad about being over protective, i like that fact. At least i know i'm safe. I'll just never let them know that so shhhh!
