Be honest...do you think your kid has a bright future?

[Dallas' 4 Eva]

My son is 16 months old so I really don't know yet. He's smart, but he's hard headed as hell too. It's like looking at a little miniature version of me.

At what age did you suspect the knucklehead was going to be a knucklehead and that the other kids were going to be good?

Probably like 12-13 when he really started the fukk shyt, but it probably was there earlier, I just didn’t pay it any attention.

The thing is that it’s not like he’s a bum or anything, bro is really smart and ambitious. He’s just an a$$hole through and through.

I'm sure you're doing your best...but don't go off your efforts. Based on what you see in your kid(s), do you think their future is bright? Or do you think they'll squander your good parenting.

She’s way more ahead of the game then I was at 13
Her confidence, willingness to learn, multiple sports/hobbies, the ability to pick shyt up within minutes, social butterfly that everybody likes, courteous
This is what I prayed to white Jesus at night for before she was born
And she has the ability to call bullshyt before me
I’ve noticed the same about her social group
It makes me proud inside

No direct kids, but I live very close to my 2 nephews and niece and I see them and watch them often.

High level observation : I can already tell my oldest nephew (5 y/o) is gonna be a little soft my brother works in an office and my sister-in law does the stay at home mother thing, so a lot of his time is spent with her. While he’s gonna be a very emotionally intelligent and empathetic kid, which is good, I can just tell he’s gonna be on the softer side, quicker to cry or pout as opposed to fighting back. I can’t have him lookin like food on the 2nd grade playground. My brother is a nice guy and they focus on being good parents who raise kids who are emotionally intelligent and loved, but my brother also didn’t get in a lot of fights as a kid, I can kinda tell I’m gonna have to be a little tougher on my nephew than I’d like, so he has at least 1 person who doesn’t coddle him


All that said, my brother and his wife do a great job parenting, 3 kids all 5 y/o and under is tough as hell, and they’re all smart and perceptive kids.

My babies are so intuitive.. their wheels are always turning. They’re great listeners and their cognitive skills for their age re a lil scary. My daughter is manipulative and cunning. Son has a heart of gold.. always selfless and has a heart for people. I’ll have to work on him and his willingness to ‘trust’ the ppl he grows attachments too. My daughter might be a lil sociopath. she’s too smart for her own good and makes her older brother look like an idiot sometimes. 8 and 6.. also raising a stepson (14) he’s a good kid.. a bit distracted these days, but it’s been a rough school year for him. my kids are gonna be good

My 3 youngest do but my oldest who knows. But for all I know he could make a hit song.

my daughter Andmy youngest sons have “it” my other son has outstanding work ethic and discipline even at his age. And my oldest can fit in to different crowds (yep he’s the token).

I need to have college and all of those funds ready for my 3 youngest. My oldest im trying to talk to him about some alternative things to make a living and find his interest and something that is feasible.

Got a dog.

He ain't gone be bout shyt.

 

[Guess Who]

My son gonna be pretty good. He’s good looking and socially intelligent so there’s that. He also treats people really well and has a good sense of justice and ethics. He doesn’t always like to work hard though and can be discouraged by adversity. I’m certain he picked those traits up from his mom before she died—it was hard to see it happening and not be able to do much about it since she moved out of the City with him. But since I’ve taken over full time my son has improved immensely along every spectrum. If he had stayed with his mom he woulda ended up as a guy who graduates high school and does some menial job somewhere without many friends but now he’s basically the opposite of that. Got him at 9 yrs old and now he’s 13.

Just started kindergarten. She would prevail at a school, or school system that encourages self thinking vs what we currently have.

I think she'll be like me. All A's for the 1st few years, then she'll get bored and do the bare minimum.


But man, I just love the way her little mind works.

My 8 year old is a nerd. Likes school, real square, makes me proud.








My 2 year old, she’s thug. Talks well. Doesn’t go to the potty, will ask you for a phone (ain’t with her mom so that’s another story) - I just asked her why she’s not going to the potty at her moms house and she said “Cause I said no” pray for me
