I have not answered the phone all day. It was hard but I did it. We raised our kids to be independent. They had chores to do. If they were not done they got no extras. My husband and I both worked. I needed the help. They were great kids. We also told them to get good educations so they would be able to support their selves. All of our kids graduated high school and even worked, bought their own cars before graduating. I do not know what has happened.
Thank you everyone. Because of your post I do not feel like a bad mom for not answering the phone today.

anvil, you did it again. Another smile!
