Should we wrap our children in bubble wrap and protect them from life? No, we should encourage them to push themselves, have experiences that will make them grow as a person. Life is to be experienced not feared.


Don't know what the weather was this past weekend in sunny, tropical south Kansas and Ark City. West of the KC Metro area it started misting and freezing rain on Friday night, and sleet and more freezing rain on Saturday. Think that storm came right up I35. Not worth the risk to be out on the road---not a sunny, family drive.

And we certainly must not CODDLE the kids---probably your favorite word and most frequent post and topic. To insure they don't feel coddled we should buy the coaches a bundle of strong cane whips, and the coach can whip them into shape before and after every practice. That would shape the little JDs up. A few red whelps on the back, butt, or legs never hurt. How many scars do you have from your beatings?
