granted. An example of this is when a
teenager ignores the curfew that has been
set and keeps his/her parents up at night
worrying about their child's safety. You
would not believe the awful thoughts that
cross parents' minds as they await your
return, Meanwhile the teenager continues to
enjoy himself not giving any thought to what
awaits him at home.
Another problem that often occurs among
families is that they try Tess to please each
other. What I mean by this is that when you
are amongst friends and strangers, you
watch yourself closely remembering your
"pleases" and your "thank-yous", excusing
yourself at appropriate times and being very
considerate and polite. While out for dinner
with others, you eat very delicately, don't
make a pig of yourself 'and watch your
manners. Then when you arrive home in the
company of loved ones who mean a great
deal to you, you eat with your elbows on the
table, dive for the food, forget your manners
and change your attitude completely.
You may rieure that since they are your
relatives, they have to accept you as you are.
That is pretty hard to do when you are extra
super nice to the neighbors and then come in
the house as grouchy as a bear,
Family is important and we must really try
hard to appreciate it, When 1 look back
through those albums I often regret that my
family is growing out of family camping trips
and even trips to Grandma's when the whore
family goes. it is 'really hard to get us
altogether at the same time anymore. So
when we do get together it is a really special
occasion and we have good times,
When you think back to what your fancily
has done for you over the years, surely you
can think of a few little ways in which to
repay them, Hugs. kind words and a smile
are great ways to start.
