I know it's been a few days.... So I'll jump right into it lol... Parents vs Friends... I'm not a parent and will never be one lolll... But I do have a young mother and I can't understand this trend of parents being best friends with there children????? Can someone explain to me what that is about???? *Sidenote* I'm not clubbing with my mother, I'm not drinking with my mother, I'm not sharing personal/intimate details about my social life with my mother, etc... I know someone that dayum near wanted to jump off a bridge because there kid was going away to school 20 minutes away because they were use to hanging out with kid like it was one of her girls..... WTF... I don't even feel comfortable having a social drink in a social setting when my mother is there let alone going to a bar drinking with her... I don't even get a drink when we go out to dinner lollll... That's just me... I'm not here to judge it's just my opinion... There's nothing wrong with having that friendly type of relationship with your parent but you have to draw the line somewhere.... I was married to one of these people that was best friends with the kids go out partying with the son and daughter and go to the bars with them.... Ummm negative.... I couldn't get with that one at all nor will I ever understand it... I'm not interested in my mother sharing her personal details with me either all set, but some people have that type of relationship more power to them it just couldn't be me.... Some people wonder why some of there kids turn out certain ways or act certain ways because you never set those boundaries... Again just my opinion.... I definitely like to hear thoughts and comments from you parents out there... lollll
Love Always,

Nix that friends with my children business.. My children actually like me. They also know I don't play. Know why? Cuz I am responsible for their upbringing... I raised them to be respectful, responsible and work hard for whatever they want. Am I susccesful? For the most part.. I can't for the life of me imgaining hanging out with them at the bar. I'm not their buddy or pal or friend... I'm their father... period... They trust and respect me.. and will call when they need to talk about anything.. I draw the line at being friends because all it does is breed contempt. Next thing you know their being disrespectful and then I go to jail for beat'n they ass half to death... lol Don't give a damn how old they get step out of line.. Imma dig in that ass and they know it... lol So, far I haven't had to put foot to they ass since they where 4 or 5... so far so good....
