I wonder sometimes about how I ended up with such different
views from you two. It could just be the times. All the youngsters seem to be
more liberal these days. Or not. I could have ended up this way regardless of
the time period. I wasn’t raised to think so freely, but this happened anyway.
My parents haven’t noticed. They have lost me. Some days I see that as a bad
thing, but today is not one of those days. I am so far away, but I like where I
am and I won’t apologize for it.
Maybe there wasn’t a simple way to prevent this. But to all
the other parents…all I have to say is know your children. You don’t have to
understand them and you don’t have to be their best friends. Just know them.
Know how they are, what they do, and their quirks. Know them and learn to trust
them. If you care and if you’re a decent person and if you notice things you’ll
pretty much raise them well. Hopefully they won’t be too wild (but no
promises).
