I and my wife raised four college educated, successful people. Want to do the same?
1. Plan ahead and don't have children until your life style is stable.
2. Try your very best to get ahead enough to have one parent stay home with the child until they enter at least first grade. I don't care about political correctness. At least in my experience 98% of the time the BEST is the MOM!
3. Don't live in a huge home with new cars and believe your priorities are in the right place. If you are a parent your priority should be your child.
4. Displine your child. Don't believe the supposed experts, a loving pat on the butt isn't child abuse.
5. Get to school and KNOW the people who teach your children. Insist they actually learn something.
6. Don't pay children for house hold chores. They live there too. Pay them for performance in school. It is just like their job. We paid for A's, a little for a B and charged them for a C. They were completely aware that anything under that was not acceptable.
Take this for whatever you think it's worth and good luck!
Have a nice day !
