~We can teach out pets  many wonderful tricks and discipline
~~    Sure enough~

  However ~  watching   our pets ~ and  some  forms of wildlife   ~ we can also learn some  pretty good  stuff from them as well~ What i am refering to at this time  ~ is a story that i read about a mother duck~ laying her eggs  ~ watching over them~ until they hatched~  and then finally~ encouraging the babies   to jump from the nest~    seeing that the nest was built up high in a flower box~ and get on with life ~ following her to the river  ~ What i am getting at ~is  they have more sense than some of us~~*   who coddle our children*~ and keep giving  everything  to them on a platter~~ and they wont learn independence  for darn sure~from our actions~ that we think is the right way~

 We have to become like the mother duck and take a stand in life~ 

  Teach them to be come independent~   make thier own way  along the rough path called  *Life*   ~When some things happen  ~ You hear someone say *Oh Thats Life*  well it is~

 Now i am not being cold hearted    ~ But realize  that  giving too much is not good and not helping ~ rather ~ teaching them to depend on someone else for everything  ~

 Come on   people ~  pack a lunch ~and get to work ~ Make your own way~ so you too ~can teach your young ones~** the right way **~  to be proud~and independent~
