[QUOTE="Aaron, post: 1385627, member: 1682"] That is what an entire generation has been told. Notice how no parent says, "I want my kids to use their muscles and make good money."? Other than maybe sports athletes who are grossly overpaid. Well the brain says it easier to sit in an office chair and make $10/hour than work in the elements in a physical role for $12. There is no honour anymore in hard work, breaking a sweat, having principles. It's all about how to work 'the system' and do the bare minimum will not negatively affecting the 'lifestyle'. Schools teach math, but not the value of a dollar. Schools teach physical education, but not how to be physically constructive. Schools teach history, but not the principles or pride of those who made it. People today say about the manual labourer, 'He works like a fool.' Compare that to the same person who says the stock broker or lawyer 'He's a smart business man/professional'. Which path is your child more likely to follow? [/QUOTE]
