What would be the first/final advice you would give them when in a serious moment with them. Me. I would tell them to hole on dearly to the childhood ideals. But to never forget responsibility. This is something I have been think about a lot lately. Me and my wife are now trying to have kids of our own. It was mostly on my part on waiting so long for it. I just wanted be the sure I was ready as possible. I would just like to know what you guys and gals would tell your children as life advice. I know it's not something you can impose onto them. That's why it's advice.
