Along, with all the other 1 things that we're not equipping them for, we're not providing them with the 'ultimate weapon lor waging their own "generations war" with the kids ot tomorrow. not giving them any hardships to brag about When you're trying to con. vine a teenage son that he doesnt need the car to go the mailbox, what parental declamation clamps the lid ont Why, that old granddaddy of the argument clinchers, the walHng in Uie snow bit: You know. "When I was your age, I walked' two miles to school In the snow, uphill both ways, with my book satohel, my lunch box, and my fat little brother on my back."

Hand him a rake and. some garden1 tools and tell him if he weeds, trims, and rakes in enough to buy himself a TV set, you'll con sider letting him plug into your electricity at a nominal fee. And When the smallest of the smanfry hands you a 'jr birthday list that adds up to a cardiac arrest, get his attention and then ask him if he wants choc61ate or vanilla, vi The kids could really use.
