1. Know WHO to trust! (Look on any United States coin.)

2. Go to school!

Physically (If you're not there physically, you won't be there mentally.)
Mentally (If you're not there mentally, you might as well not be there physically.)

4. Get a job.  (If you followed the first three steps, you'll know how to please your boss and be a productive worker, and you won't lose a good job because of ignorance.)  This is when you buy cars, homes, clothes, and jewelry! You go on vacations and laugh a lot!  You become an INDEPENDENT person!  This is FUN, FUN, FUN if you've followed the first three steps!

5. Plan your family. ("Plan" is the key here!)

a.  Date

Dating is supposed to give you time to see if the person you are dating has gone through the first 4 steps.  If not, dump him/her!  If they hit you or curse you, DUMP them!  (Those are signals of things to come...count on it.) Remember, dating is NOT intended to be a hands-on experience.

b.  Get Married 

c.  Have fun for 4 years (You've both got jobs, so you can buy your home, go on vacations together, go to movies and out to eat every night--IF you've gone through the steps.  Otherwise, you'll be poor and bored spend all your time trying to figure out how you got yourself into this mess.)

d.  Plan for your children.  (This step is HARD!!  One kind of fun--c--will be over.  Count on it.  You won't sleep for 6 years.  You'll have baby spit up on your clothes.  You will spend every waking moment thinking and worrying about your little one or running the child to the doctor.  You might forget to comb your hair, shave, or put on make-up. Having children is NOT for everyone! But, once your PLANNED baby is born after you have gone through the other steps, you and your spouse will be the happiest persons on earth.  Special note:  If everyone followed the advice in this step, the abortion debate would be over!) 

e. Get mean! "Mean Parents" has wisdom  for every MOTHER and FATHER.  Rules for dating my daughter is an example of the "MEAN PARENTS" who will help assure the success and happiness of their children!
