Never let it be said that you don't try the best you can, the best you are able to, when it comes to important things like your children.  Sometimes due to the stress of everyday living, bills, relationships, our past life and our problems coping in the present, our children tend to slip down the list of our priorities. 

Well, now that I have sugar-coated it real nice-like, have you ever heard the saying, "The buck stops here"?  You are not going to help your kids with their current problems by giving them advice, not after they have become teens and older.  Not after they have become really screwed up because of your example.

I am a firm believe that when you become 18, you are on your own.  You must retain the positive traits your parents have instilled in you and reject the negative.  Try presenting that concept to your 18 year old, but have your ears covered when they respond with advice on where you need to go.

It took me until I was 50 years of age before I started accepting the positive and rejecting the negative traits of my parents.  Best get your kids and your grandkids to the top of your priority list.  That's what comes first, next keep your mouth shut.  They don't want your advice, they need your example and it's never too late to start setting that example. 

Don't even bother, if money, a new house, a new car, a job, or other things are more important to you.  I will feel sorry for you, when you are looking out the window 40 years from now longing for someone to come and visit you.
