As a person older then you. I see parents are all over their kids. They know where there kids are 24/7. My parents had no clue where I was or what I was doing.
And the last part confirms it. You confused fantasy with reality and now why work hard? Because you now grew up a bit and realized that it takes hard work. Just a thought.

I am willing to bet I am probably about the same age as yourself. My main point was there was a time when one parent was home all the time and their life was the kids. that isn't true anymore. how old are these kids that the parents are 'all over'. my parents knew where i was at all times when i was 8 or so but not when i was 12. big difference in those 4 years. anyways, i didn't say that was my thinking. i work hard. its just what i see a large number of people getting from celebrity culture. today's economy is enough to make anyone jaded, especially the youth. they don't see any bright future ahead. they are told there isn't one anymore.
