It blew me away. I'm glad we are friends and I'm glad you find some of what I say "inspiring". lol. Here I thought it was a lot of jibberish. <BR/><BR/>Secondly, I so agree with you about being a spoiled nation. One of the reasons we are trying to get out of northern Virginia is the sense of entiltement that the kids around us have. WE do not want to raise our children in this type of environment. We worked too damn hard to hand our kids coach bags and BMW's on a silver platter. I didn't have it at that age and I'm certainly not giving it to mine. What the heck do they have to look forward to if we give in to what the "other's" are doing at age five! Yes, we spoil our girls. With. Love. Not things. It's time parent's started parenting too.<BR/><BR/>Great post!!insanemommyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08024207455562384017noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5054279435479061381.post-64928528912988311942008-02-23T20:53:00.000-06:002008-02-23T20:53:00.000-06:00I watch Leno regularly.

I'm sure if more people knew his true outlook, the Tonight Show would have a much leaner audience---because so many are spoiled, ungrateful brats. And we keep creating more spoiled generations as we grow. More people need to act instead of speak. You know Leno has no children? There's a reason for that. I am as guilty as anyone of overdoing but I do believe that I am truely grateful for what I have and I know what the most important things are. I am always preaching to my children to define and refine their priorities......<BR/>Also, I am bipartisan. I don't believe in the party system. I think it only serves to divide the country. I also belive the country should be run by a panel of elected officials that have sub-committees working on ideas all the time. I also believe that what they pay themselves is ridiculous---and the benefits?! OMG!!! The school system is a joke and not a funny one.<BR/>I could go on forever. Need to say I applaud you for posting this wake-up call.<BR/>Too bad that the 'right' people will never see it.Linda ★ Parker's Generalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06580449029112777882noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5054279435479061381.post-32170473504998592932008-02-23T19:12:00.000-06:002008-02-23T19:12:00.000-06:00Amen, Sister!!!!By the way, the site for the bow y...Amen, Sister!!!!<BR/><BR/>By the way, the site for the bow you liked with the Ladybugs:<BR/><BR/>www.DiTsYBiTsY.etsy.comNancyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18109185451061639939noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5054279435479061381.post-5906564576802759082008-02-23T16:07:00.000-06:002008-02-23T16:07:00.000-06:00Great post Kristy!

I true...Very true, we are a bunch of spoiled brats. I truely believe that. Look around at the school system like I do almost everyday, people just don't care anymore. And why?? Because everything is given to them on a platter. Generally speaking, kids don't have to work anymore or do chores; they are given everything they want and more. No wonder the schools are having an uphill battle with these students. Makes me sad to know I live in one of the greatest countries in the world and I can see that just like all great empires in the past, we will fall at some point too.
