Parents influence on their children




I was watching a show on prison inmates and this guys caught my eye. I wonder why. He said that he was raised a skin head. His parents were members of that gang and he followed in thier footsteps. He said that he was taught the beliefs of the skin heads early in life. His parents were tatoo artist and he got his first tat at the age of 13. I wonder what his life would have turned out like had he had somewhat normal parents. He seemed to be a very soft spoken guys. He said that he just wanted to get out of prison and have a normal life like everyone else. I think it is a little late for that.

That is so scary! I can't believe some people are allowed to parent...

Yeah, it's probably going to be hard for him to have a normal life with a swaztka(sp?) tattooed to his forehead.

I constantly worry that my kids are picking up my bad habits, but I feel a little better about my parenting after reading that :)
