Answer 4

I'm stilling "growing up" I guess, but I have to say (not to boast of course) that I hope my children grow up to be like me- or somewhat close anyway.

I want them to be responsible, open-minded, educated, and respect other people and animals, as well as themselves. (and that's what I live by.)

Answer 5

To respect others no matter how different they are.  

Answer 6

Always be honest no matter what.

Respect, yourself and others.

Never take life too seriously that you miss all the fun!

Answer 7

Respect yourself, respect others, if you can't have fun doing what you do, don't do it, put the toilet seat down ~ the ladies will appreciate it, and don't forget your parents while they are alive.
