THIS!

Congratulations to whomever post this picture! You win the internet today! I agree wholeheartedly with this statement and have often said, "What happens when that child gets a job? Are they going to quit every time a boss says something mean to them or expects more out of them?" Or, "Are mommy and daddy going to call the boss and bitch at him when Junior gets written up at work?"
GET OVER IT!!!
I'll let you in on a little secret...life's a bitch. It's not easy. It's not rainbows and kittens and sunshine farts. You will have mean bosses. You will have bad days. You will not get everything handed to you on a silver platter with a six figure paycheck. You will have to get dirty. You will have to miss out on dates and dances and special occasions if work happens to call. You will pray for days your children are sick so you don't have to go to work. It's all part of being a grown-up.
SO, ya know what? Stay out for every damned extra curricular event you can be involved in and enjoy every second of it. Embrace the suck that is a tough coach, because you know what? YOU HAVE 18 YEARS OF CHILDHOOD...THAT'S IT. After that, its all of the above and then some.
I understand having to buy your own $150 jeans (mind you when I was your age they were $50...inflation is a bitch too) because mom says, "Hell no, buy them yourself." But, in the same instant...are $150 jeans really worth giving up parts of your childhood that you will never again get to do? You have the rest of your life to work..unless you happen to find yourself a sugar daddy or get adopted by a ridiculously wealthy Sultan...Enjoy being a kid, learn to appreciate that hard ass coach, because someday, he could be your boss.
