What do we owe our children?

We owe our children time with their parents, family, and the best we can do for them! It's not always about giving them the best technology; it's about telling them you love them! Telling them they have a chance to change the world.

John Lennon

Perhaps, John Lennon had some great ideas to keep peace in the world, and have a "sleep in" to give notice to world peace! We are still looking for peace, and we are still a world that has problems. We can't crawl under the covers to solve our problems, or put our heads in the sand. Our children need us to take care of the world, so they have a world to bring their children to.

But how cool is the so to speak cool person, when the person that makes something to better our environment comes up with a revolutionary thing to use to save time, and help the environment. That is what is cool and not the once popular muscular football player!  The child they should have been listening to the directions the teacher was giving in class, instead of being the class clown or bully. The bully grows up, and thinks that they are still funny, and can rule the universe by bullying people to get what
