As parents, sometimes it is difficult to get through to your kids. Recently, a 13-year-old boy's mother got through to him by writing him a letter.
The young man had told his mother that he didn't want to be told what to do anymore. He had just started earning a small income. So, he thought he shouldn't be told what to do anymore by his mother.
Christmas cards are great! Christmas is the only time of year I get items in my mail box that aren't bills.
