Family Bond Paper™

Have you ever heard this phrase "Well, you could be living outdoors!"? As a child, I 'often' heard adults saying this to each other, or to their own children.  So I learned such mannerisms from observing. So when a child was being punished and wanted to go outside, they were told "You can go outside and get some fresh air. Sure you can. Sit right there, on that step (usually the step of the main entrance leading into a home), and I dare you to leave off of it." When I would visit my great aunt (who recently passed away), who lived in West Baltimore, I was amazed that city parents said the same thing to their children. So I know that there are plenty of city children that know what I'm talking about today. I have actually said this to my children, too.

We as a society must learn to accept, honor, and appreciate our specific genders.  This behavior is another example of old traditions of family dysfunction, "we don't know any better." Yes, you do. You know that it is a dysfunction to have someone rearing children than their own parents whether it be grandmothers, aunts, uncles, single dads, etc. If we are trying to change a generational curse than we need to understand that this was a day to honor all mothers, not grandmothers.
