Who are you giving your kids to?

So I wondered, who are you giving your kids to? Who is the person or persons who will be seeing your child through the last 2/3 of  their lives?

I swear that these MOMINISTAS don't have a CLUE what they are doing, I actually feel bad for them. Sitting in church, in the movies, in traffic, at school. UGH I want to just SCREAM at them, you have NO idea what you are DOING! (not that I do all the time, but in these extreme cases of moministaisms, yes, yes I think I see the picture).

We as parents only have so many days to get our children out of season 1 and into season 2 as successful, loyal, wonderful people who bear fruit. We as parents do not get to be a part of their circle of influence very long. I mean think about where are YOUR parents now that YOU are a know-it-all mominsta (or if you are reading this an ANTI-mominista)???

My parents are probably in the same place YOUR parents are and in the same place THEIR parents are....at a respectful distance. You smartly left and cleaved to something else in life, someone else, some place else. MAYBE not even what 'they' wanted you to, but you did, you survived and YOU are ok...I hope. My parents THINK they have a wider circle of influence on me than they do for many reasons, not to hurt their feelings but because I like it that way, I love to keep the peace, and in all honesty they do many times impart great wisdom that I would otherwise have to learn the hard way if they had not told me the nitty gritty truth or guided me softly to where I need to be (dad). LOL. HOWEVER, they are NOT influencing my daily lives and interactions with tv time, toilet time, or dinner time.

These mom's these MOMINISTAS they wrangle their husbands they launch their children into failure by setting them up to never get hurt, experience loss, or trip on their own shoe laces. They have attempted to bullet proof a world where everyone but their child is packing heat.

Who are you giving your child to? Who will wake up next to your child every day for 10 years, 20 years, 40 years? Who will your child get  day to day urgent advice from? Who will they trust with their deepest secrets? NOT YOU.

Moministas of the world who are attempting to create spineless husbands to do their bidding to create a world where no one is packing heat are DEAD wrong, backward, and need a hobby. The way to move forward is to allow your child to fall back. Allow your child to deal with loss, to deal with pain, to deal with life's unfairness so they don't end up in counseling for the person they get day to day advice and trust with their secrets isn't a therapist who also feels entitled, lost, and alone but can't say it to anyone for fear of looking like a fool in his or her own profession.

I am giving my child to a world that is lost, to a world that needs them, to a world that is ripe with loss, terror, and horror. I am giving my child to a world they expected and can conquer that they can do God's work in and serve, see, and feel the pain without fear of apathy, unrest, or disgrace. I give my child to something bigger, something hotter, something more amazing than a certifiable mominista who is going to wake up one day and wonder why her sweet cooing of "wear your socks on the bouncy house so your feet won't get germs on them" to a sweaty five year old didn't work.....

WAKE UP....*give your kids away, that is what you are CALLED to do....if you do not give them away they will be stolen from you or leave you angry and may never come back, both risks I am NOT willing to take...are you?

*For those of you who did NOT read my entire blog, do NOT actually GIVE your kids away, please keep them until they are old enough to do for themselves, then let them go and pay their OWN electric bill since they ran yours up for 18+ years...
