Passed On

"What I should have done was have you guys marching in and out of the house, single file...."

Marching.
Soldiers.
Dictatorship.
Control.

Family.
Discipline.
Emotional support.
Children.
Father.

Welcome To Crustybeef~
pained.
*This quote was passed onto me from a family member, the quote isn't exact, except for the part about having "his" children march around like soldiers.*
pained, definitely.
There is Acceptance- It's there indefinitely-it has to be- For someone that can't see change, or outside of their own truths, you can't have anything else but acceptance that an old dog can't possibly learn new tricks when they've been taught one way as a child themselves.
Painfully managed.

That would have been a crazy way to grow up!!! I know that we will not look back on the way we raised our three young guys and ever think that. There is a ton of love in the house..There is..

wanna run away?

CRUSTY MOM-E said...

soul: I'm good, but I know of someone that dreams of running at many times in her life. This woman is the one that's had to endure the controlling nature the hardest, being the wife.
She holds herself together, you'd never know it.
Course, I'll run away as long as it's just for a quick weekend away...:)

Always,
Crusty~

i guess some people can't figure out any other way...the worst part is passing it from one generation to the next. these are hard cycles to break.

CRUSTY MOM-E said...

Soul; Keep reading, you'll get answers :) (it's okay if you call me a pita-I understand!!...someday I will explain.(Perhaps on my FINAL BLOG!!). and really it's just a silly silly thing...

Portia: I'm presently working on breaking that cycle. :(

Always,
Crusty~
