Ten Things Your Parent Told You That You Should’ve Listened to and Didn’t

1.  Don’t Lie!! (One lie leads to two lies then three and soon after they catch up to you! The truth may hurt and get you in trouble but in the end people will be less mad.  Also then you don’t have to worry about covering things up!)

2. Don’t Drink and Drive! (Yet I can bet 90% if not more of us have! Stupidity at it’s FINEST! My dad use to tell me he’d rather I called him drunk than risk my life. Yes I would’ve got chewed out and been in a world of trouble, but at least I wasn’t risking death or hurting others!)

3. Who you hang around is a reflection of you! ( Most of us thought YA RIGHT! Honestly though this is very very true.  Sad thing is most of us realize it once it’s to late!)

4. Stay out of Trouble (HA!! a common reply!  We push the limit to far, for a adrenaline rush or whatever.  Usually ending us up in trouble!)

5.  Don’t Do…….(From a stubborn person, they’re like why NOT?? Honestly your parents are more than likely talking from experience.  They were your age once too you know!!

                 I’m 26 years old and I use to think DAMN my parents just like to complain and don’t want me to have any fun.  It’s truly not that, they just don’t want you to make the mistakes they DID!

                As crazy as it sounds I’m truly glad my parents complained and gave me tough love at times.  I’m realizing as a grown woman and a mother now they only did it because they loved me!!!

                 So thank you so much to my parents! Once your older or a parent you’ll understand too!!
