[QUOTE="dennishoddy, post: 3585690, member: 5412"] I have two sons that I'm proud of. They have made me proud of them through their entire lives. In grade school, with the parents jobs, they had to wake up, get ready for school then walk 1/2 mile to school and another 1/2 mile back home every day. They had discipline applied when needed. In high school, the oldest had to ride a bicycle two miles to school when his camaro was grounded for infractions more than once. Oldest was state champion three wheeler youth class for Ok for 3 years. Currently into Martial arts competition at the age of 50 with a double black belt teaching classes. Three grandkids was his greatest contribution along with a Daughter In law that has become family. Youngest was paralyzed in an accident 13 years ago. Incomplete quad with use of his arms, but not hands, feeling from the nipple's up, nothing below. On his own, refusing help he bought his own home by saving his disability money, living cheap with his mom, paying rent to her to live there as our home was not ADA. I wouldn't have charged rent.....long story. He has paid off his home now with some help from family living free. That's our story. [/QUOTE]
