Tell Jake to not say anything when his girlfriend asks him if her dress makes her look fat. "No" If she isn't fat, no problem. If she's fat, you've told the truth and managed to give her the answer she wanted to hear anyway.

by the time your Son is old enough to need rules, he will already be disinclined to following them. Raise them right to start with, and you won't need rules.

I'd like to add:
Always pay your debts.
Never shoot your last round of ammunition.

Don't hurt yourself or anyone else, unless defending oneself.

1-Don't make fun of the ugly girls. The hot chicks will notice what a jerk you are, and the ugly girls may someday become hot.
2-Don't get married.

You may get away with acting like a thug, or looking like one, but not both.
The only thing worse than a liberal is a liberal that thinks they're a conservative.

Great stuff to ponder. Might add the following:
Never co-sign a note for anyone, especially a relative.
Should you loan a relative money, just kiss it goodby instead.
Beware of thieves, scammers and dishonest members on the "Fire" classifieds. Ya there is a thief here too. Whatever!!
They're all around the CampFire and everywhere.

Yeah, a loan to a relative is just another word for "gift."
