As parents we often wonder if we are doing what is really best for our children, at least I do.  They tell me they hate the rules and wonder why they can’t pierce, dye, or tattoo whatever they want. They want to know why they should eat this or shouldn’t drink that.  They question what the big deal is about being out past midnight with friends, or driving with someone that’s only had their license for a month.  Ahhh to be young and immortal!  Then, at the end of the day when they are securely tucked in their beds, tummies full and conscious clear, I have to believe that they are deep down inside grateful that someone cares so much.  My daily inspired thoughts.
