raising

You have the legs and other also have it; they have the brain and you have it! Stop thinking you can't transact the business that others can. If you do, you are raising your inflation rate!

Girls mature faster than boys, cost more to raise, and statistics show that the old saw about girls not knowing about money and figures is a myth. Girls start to outspend boys before puberty__nd they manage to maintain this lead until death or an ugly credit manager, whichever comes first. Males are born with a closed fist. Girls are born with the left hand cramped in a position the size of an American Express card. Whenever a girl sees a sign reading, __ale, Going Out of Business, Liquidation,_ saliva begins to form in her mouth, the palms of her hands perspire and the pituitary gland says, __o, Mama._ In the male, it is quite a different story. He has a gland that follows a muscle from the right arm down to the base of his billfold pocket. It's called __heap._ Girls can slam a door louder, beg longer, turn tears on and off like a faucet, and invented the term, __ou don't trust me._ So much for __ugar and spice and everything nice_ and __nips and snails and puppydog tails.

Writing a book is like raising a child, the only difference is you don__ have the fucking part in writing a book.

A __ood_ father will tenderly cultivate his children. But a __ood_ father who is also a __rave_ father will let the children without cultivate the child within.

If you want to completely destroy a child, all you have to do is mold them into your vision of what you want them to be.

The answer to the question __ow many children do you have?_ and the one to the question __ow many children are you raising?_ are not identical in all cases: some men are not taking care of their own children, some are knowingly or unknowingly raising other men__ children, and some do not even know that they each have a child, another child, or other children.

Young people today are deeply passionate and crave authentic life based on truth. They're hungry to make a difference. They're willing to take a stand for whatever they believe, even to die for a cause. When they sell out to Jesus, they'll pursue a standard of righteousness that is greater than anything you and I ever saw growing up. Don't water it down. Don't lower the standard. And don't just settle for raising it-raise it higher. Believe in your children. Talk with them. Speak well of them. Encourage them. Pray for them. Celebrate the victories with them. Affirm their growth. We can raise a generation that, although they'll make mistakes, will sell out completely when Jesus grips them. They'll give Him everything. They'll make you proud by being even weirder than you are.
