Becoming aware of my character defects leads me naturally to the next step of blaming my parents. We did have to childproof our home about 3 years ago . . . Be nice to your kids. They'll choose your nursing home. Grandchildren are God's reward for not killing your children.
Insanity is hereditary.
You get it from your kids. You can fool some of the people all of the time and all of the people some of the time, but you can never fool a Mom. A child's greatest period of growth is the month after you've purchased new school clothes. Then you spend the next 16 telling them to sit down and be quiet. The best inheritance parents can give their children is a few minutes of their time each day.
