Dwight, I agree with your thoughts here on raising children: I have 3 sons, two of them teenagers still living at home. They are quite demanding; they require a lot of attention and love; they are always asking for advice and guidance. My wife or I need to be at home at all times for them. I know a lot about children. I own a learning center and many of these rich yuppie parents dump their kids here ( after school ) till they get home at 8:00-9:00-10:00pm at night. What started as a learning center to enrich children and to make sure they do well in school has expanded into a day care center for those parents who need to meet with that extra client during the evening. Now I have Psychologists and Sociologists on my staff listening to the cries of these children who miss their Mommy and Daddy! Mommy and Daddy seem to care more about making more and more money for that winter or summer home and that new Mercedes or BMW. I'm the one in charge of their childrens' education. They pay me top $$ and they don't want to hear from me what they know deep down their guilty of! When they ask me why their child is acting up in school and I tell them the Truth, they get turned off! As much as these children love my learning center, it is no substitute for Quality Time with their parents. It's a real problem. Maybe the Bear Market will get them to re-evaluate their values.
