[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I grew up poor, so the phrase “life isn’t fair” was a huge part of my upbringing and I guess that I still have it. Life isn’t always fair, it’s time you face that fact and teach your kids instead of whining about it. There are a million ways to get ssl hours and if your kids can’t be a junior coach then they’ll have to find something else to do. No it’s not their fault. It wasn’t my fault I couldn’t go to summer camp because my parents couldn’t afford it. But when I applied for a counselor job I’m not surprised I didn’t get it because I had zero experience at camp (even though I was always great with kids and would have done well). Instead I got a job bussing tables.

Life isn’t fair, as soon as you accept it and know how to move on, the sooner you’ll be happy.[/quote]

This might be the most helpful post on here.

[b]I know this is true. I’m just said and upset at myself for not having done better[/b].[/quote]
So take it to heart. That post literally said accept it and stop whining and yet you respond sad and whining. 
I’m not trying to be mean but it’s hard to read it and think actually mean it was a helpful post. Tough love![/quote]
