Well as a grandpa (Papa G) and a long time father (29+) years, I have a bit of experience raising and watching kids, and I just want to answer that age old question, What's wrong with kids today? And the answer is overall NOTHING!!
Last week I gave the lesson to the High Priest's Group on strengthening our families. I started off with the comment that folks tell me I'm LUCKY to have the two kids I have. I said I'm not sure whether to take that as a compliment or criticism. Yes, I agree, I am lucky to have the kids I have and they are GREAT, but then I'm luckier to have the two kids I have and for them to have the two GREAT spouses they have, someone else's GREAT kids, lucky parents, lucky me, lucky kids of mine. All four of these kids are great because they have parents who love them, parents who support them in correct decisions and parents who took them to church with them, took them with, not sent them to church without. Love, support, correct decisions, standards and most important example make parents LUCKY like me. I love you Rachel, Alex, Ryan, Jessica and my grandson, Aidan. I love my wife and appreciate the parents of my kid's spouses.
