Good story and if all Dad's would take the time to do what he did there would be less problems. Many times the kids don't want to listen.
My daughter's were the same way I had to battle them week after week on the rules and why they had to crack those books.
When they turn 14 they get a little nuts and think that they've grown up and can make their own decisions. This is true and if it were the olden days they would've been married off and really had tough life of sledding ahead of themselves.
I got them through school that's all I cared about. I only wish one of them had made some better choices after school but they were her choices and she had to live with them - as do her Mother and I.
I really liked your story it would go a long way if it were sent to many schools and other educational firms.
