My kids need a father they can be proud of, not a scab IMHO. This is something they will remember.
We are facing a time of sacrifice and they will understand. It will build character so they can fight the good fight when they need to.
How many of our grandparents told us of times they caved in for a few bucks to take our father to Disneyland ? Or was it of how they did the right thing to forge a future for us ? Did they remember the bribes and buyoffs or the sacrifices and the strikes ?
How ashamed they would be--and rightly so-- to have a father who sold out for a few bucks.
