I’m an adult and I’m pissed

Keywords: {0}

Pissed that I keep getting rejected, pissed that I didn’t do any internships, pissed that my family is looking at me to already get my shit together and pissed at myself mainly. Who the fuck told me it was a good idea to purse a career in a state college that barely has connections or useful resources to the career that I am pursuing. Why I didn’t I become a social worker or a nurse or fucking lawyer!

I don’t want my kids to be afraid of me. I want respect from them, true respect, and the only way I can get that is if I show them how to do it, how to be respectful, by giving them respect. This isn’t friendship — it’s treating them like a person, a young person whose brain is developing. As an adult, it’s my job to set an example for them, to teach through modeling.
