Blog: Update our path to happiness through retaining less stuff

poor little kids

Thursday, June 11, 2009

I mentioned that I clean a club house that I get a little pay for and free use of the ameneties.  Well what I'm seeing at this club house sickens me.  This club house caters to the local University college students (19-24 year olds).  What sickens me is these young adults roll out of bed drinking around lunch then the continue to drink the rest of the day.  This club house is absoulty beautiful.  They trash this place.  It takes a full crew to pick up the beer cans each mornnig to move the chairs out of the pool.  In the club house I have broken beer bottles and broken stick to the pool table and sand tracked from the volly ball courts.  The tanning room has tanning goo squired onto the wall.  These young people walk through with their heads held high like they reigned from some royalty or something. 

Parents YOU ARE NOT doing your young people a favor by giving them the Prince/Princess mentatlitiy.  If you are a guilty parent of doing too much -- love your kids and teach them pride in their belongings by having them work to earn and maintain possessions.  One way a young child can work for belonging is the priveledge of a nice soft bed.  They should make that bed daily. They should care for their pillows by fluffing and placing on the bed neatly  They should look at that bed as a prized possession.  Shoes they should care for their shoes by washing and polish.  Clothing should never be discarded onto the floor.  It their clothing is only worth walking on donate those items to someone that would treasure those items.

If you do these things when your kids are growing up then the rest of the world will not have to suffer their existance but rejoice in knowing them.
