Advice For My Kid
Things I want to pass on to my son as he gets older. Hopefully he’ll heed my words and not be like me, having to learn the hard way all the time.
Check the bottoms of your shoes for doggie doo before you go to school. You don’t want to be the kid smelling like crap all day long.
No matter how much you may want to, don’t pull little girls’ hair. All it does is piss them off. Also, don’t throw a basket ball at her head. This isn’t the way to win her over.
Raise your hand even if you don’t know the answer. You’ll called on if you DON’T raise your hand.
If you get called on and you don’t know the answer, make up a funny one.
Don’t be the kid that steals lunch money. Be the kid that beats the crap out of the kid that steals lunch money.
In other words, stand up for yourself and the people that can’t fight back.
Start learning how to drive nice and early, so you’re a pro by the time you turn 16. (Daddy will probably start teaching you when you’re 6 anyway.)
Think long and hard about what you really want to do before you go to college.
Don’t use ridiculous pick-up lines if you like a girl.
Wear a condom.
ALWAYS be yourself.
Don’t get a credit card when you’re 19. 99% of the time this is a very bad idea.
But if you do, make DAMN SURE you build your credit instead of ruin it. Turns out, credit is a very important thing.

I have no Idea why, but this made me a little emotional, it made me think of all this things I want to say to my little cupcake when she grows up.
You have a lucky kid, I hope he grows up to be the great man that will make you the proudest mom in the world =D
