That’s right. You read me. Our kids, our children don’t matter! They are an annoyance and distraction from our cell phones, laptops, pc, ipods and countless other things that are more important and interesting.

I see it every day. Think about it. Driving our cars falls into the same category. Let’s gamble with our lives, our kids’ lives and the lives of everyone else on the road for the simple sake of the cell phone. We’re multi-taskers~~~! Tell that to the 3,000+ that die each year from cell phone car crashes.

Also, it’s more interesting to be at work. Work is CERTAINLY more important than our kids. Without work, how would the family eat? …have shelter? …wear nice clothing? …buy more than we can afford?

Never mind the fact that when we’re old none of this other stuff (phones & cars & work) will matter. Hell, we may not even get to be old… wait a minute, then… if we don’t get to be old and we squander the moments we can have NOW with them, we (and they) WILL be truly screwed!

Let’s weigh this out again. Off work, the cell phone and electronics can wait until our child has had full face time in measure of at least twice as much as we would give the electronics. Driving, we pull over to the side of the road to use the phone or better yet, we put it in the trunk of the car until we reach our destinations!

Love crusted over in neglect becomes stale and lifeless and the self-esteem of our children suffers. Don’t let this happen to us and our families. LET’S GET OUR PRIORITIES STRAIGHT! As the facts state, “if you love me, you will prove it by giving me your GREATEST gift without me having to beg for it. If you love me, you LOVE to give me your ATTENTION!”

How good are you at giving your undivided attention to you children?
