Over the past week or so I have being taking on more responsibility at home than I have in the past. My mom is always busy and running around and never has time to herself. Therefore, I have taken it upon myself to help her out so she will relax every now and then. Sometimes I feel bad that she takes on so much responsibility and tries to help everyone else around her. Every time my mom makes an inducement of some sort, she always gets the result she hopes for, and if not she tries again. My mother does very enigmatic things that leave her stressed and feeling like she did not do enough. I belive that by helping out more and taking on more adult responsibilities, I will give my mom the reassurance of knowing I can handle a lot and be responsible. This also leads to her being able to relax and not worry so much because I despise when she is like that. If every teenager took an hour a day to help their parents, I think their parents will give them the utmost respect and learn to understand that they can handle what is thrown at them.

ReplyDeleteWow! You really got me thinking about what a very wise man once told me about one of the ten commandments: honoring one's parents. He said that the ultimate way to respect our parents is to anticipate their needs and predict what they want us to do, and just do it, BEFORE they ask.
ReplyDeleteGreat image, by the way!

Perhaps you could find a way to transmit or teach this concept to your freshmen. Do you ever show them your blog?
No, they have never seen my blog but thank you it is a good idea.
