Dad FTW

In your words, you said at 15 if they dont have respect they are a lost cause, those are words you chose, however you meant them I dunno. Im interpretating your typing/words that if they dont have respect they are a lost cause...whatever.....AND by the way my son does and is gaining respect for me. Maybe the last 5 years I should have given up on him?? Sorry Oldmanray, but maybe Im interpreting your words wrong...for your sake I hope so. Go talk to a highschool teacher, see how many 15 year olds have respect for anyone...not many I bet, but they do come around.....

You know. Those are not my words I said MOST LIKELY meaning that if they haven!t learned it from you as a parent by then yes it most likely is a lost cause they will learn it at home. Sorry we don't see eye to eye. Again best to you and your son. If you wish to discuss this further send me a pm I'm done here.
