Mama Says Monday

Mama’s lesson # 3,10,15,21…..1073, 2542,…1,302,579. You get the picture. This is something I had said, and reiterated many, many times. When you make a decision, think it through carefully--because there are consequences to most every decision. Apparently, other parents forgot to mention this to their little angels. 

I am so sick of seeing all these public figures that think they can decide to take a stand that is against the norm, then cry foul when things go badly. It’s fine if that is something you feel so strongly about that you are willing to take the consequences. Good for you, you are standing for your principals. But when you have to face the consequences, and you cry foul--you “didn’t know this would be what happened,”--I don’t feel one ounce of pity for you. Did you think there would be no consequences? 

 
But I get even more upset when I see other adults saying “oh, he really shouldn’t be facing these things just because he took such a stand. It’s not fair.” Fair? Why is it not fair? I have made stupid decisions, and I certainly have had to face the consequences. It’s all part of adulting. 

Until next week,
