I was sorry for him because he did feel really miserable but I had a lot of fun.

I know I wasn't happy when he was misbehaving but it is important to show that I'm stronger than his bad humor and my love will get us through. It is also an image of God, how He loves us, even when we rebel and misbehave, He is strong enough to suffer through for us.Kiittäkää Aina ja Kaikestahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12264486975627673705noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2997377041096641755.post-24521572756211549592014-03-18T01:05:35.586+02:002014-03-18T01:05:35.586+02:00That is basicly what happens with my son very many...That is basicly what happens with my son very many times, too. I think they need to find their limits and if they are not sure about them the insecurity makes them feel unsafe. Sadly I think, from here on it will only get worse because they are at an age to get independent from their parents. Though I'm trying to teach my son to be and independant and educated man with good manners.Kiittäkää Aina ja Kaikestahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12264486975627673705noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2997377041096641755.post-41722788975469953952014-03-16T12:30:23.867+02:002014-03-16T12:30:23.867+02:00My son is a jerk to me and would rather play hos v...My son is a jerk to me and would rather play hos video games.

We had to go out with our parents on the weekends and sometimes I really resented being torn from my friends, but I always remained respectful. I wish the places we went were as beautiful as yours.

I remember feeling that way as a child when I "had" to go somewhere when I would have preferred to stay home with my friends. What I wouldn't give now to be able to go on those trips again with my parents. I loved your photos. Very nice. Beautiful. Thanks for sharing!

When they get older I hope I'll be able to drag them into the 'jungle' and teach them the valuable lesson your son received!
