One of them, 28 years old, summed up the attitude: "I've never worked a day in my life, my father has never worked in my lifetime!" or the 24 year old who said, "I left school at sixteen and have worked the system since then. I have never been employed and don't intend to be!" my heart cried for them and wondered how they had missed having the work ethic ingrained in them as it was in me!Lynnehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07760744006915967397noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7046712351373941186.post-19842421146818090332012-04-15T21:12:09.314-05:002012-04-15T21:12:09.314-05:00That Farmer's Wife DOES have a positive outloo...That Farmer's Wife DOES have a positive outlook, and is a model for the rest of us.
