but the whole "teach a man to fish"
proverb comes to mind.
you could ride his ass until he freaks out...
and moves in with some wacko party animals
that get him into
VERY serious trouble....
and he ends up back home under house arrest.
or...
you could do well to point out to him....(and yourself BTW )
that he's
no longer a kid... and it's high time
to face up to some personal responsibility
... and do the right thing.
"kids" his age are being sniped off in IRAQ in nasty land.
his glass appears to be half empty... (in my "minds eye" view)
as he justifies
his
not doing something with lame excuses
like " i didn't even know we had one.... "
he is not realizing the awesome opportunity he has
right now at that age feeling empowered to do or
become almost anything you want to be...
he must be considered to be a YOUNG MAN instead.
and he needs the ole...Ranger Walker pep talk
about
Life is a serious of choices
that you have to make...
and it's a
good idea to make the right ones
Everything can be considered an Opportunity
or it can be SH|t canned into excuse land.
ok... i'll quit riding ya...
well true enough about riding him
