Things your parents do/did that you vow never to do Not necessarily parenting things,
Like for example I swear to never get the last bit of the ketchup by putting water in it, like my father. Or put "L" and "R" on my slippers, like my father. Or act retarded at restaurants when the waiter is taking my order (again, like my father ) How about you? Spill the goss on your folks' odd habits | |

I vow to...
* Not fix everything with tape and aluminum foil. * Not get mad at my daughter just because she's mad at me. * Not make her eat everything on her plate after she's clearly full. * Allow my kid to respectfully state her case in an argument, and if it's reasonable -- and I know my position is full of crap -- I may yield. Ὅσον ζῇς φαίνου
μηδὲν ὅλως σὺ λυποῦ πρὸς ὀλίγον ἐστὶ τὸ ζῆν τὸ τέλος ὁ χρόνος ἀπαιτεῖ.” | |

Also, I vow never to "sop" up all residual traces of food, sauce, etc. on my plate with a biscuit... then eat it. Ὅσον ζῇς φαίνου
μηδὲν ὅλως σὺ λυποῦ πρὸς ὀλίγον ἐστὶ τὸ ζῆν τὸ τέλος ὁ χρόνος ἀπαιτεῖ.” | |

I vow to never do the three following things.
1. Throw keys when I'm angry ( my mom and with great force and accuracy) 2. Say "Don't sass me boy/girl! (My dad whenever I attempeted to talk back) 3. Get caught having sex by my child ( which happened when I was 13 and my sister was twelve, came back to the house to get something we forgot for a sleepover and walked in to dads pasty ass and mom spread eagle and grunting. Still scarred from it) Carpenters bend wood, fletchers bend arrows, wise men fashion themselves.

i'm never going to become provincial, like both of my parents. i'm always going to want to try new things, go new places, keep my mind open to the way the world is changing, and challenge my own cynicism and comfort levels. amen. | |
