Cut the Umbilical Cord

 

Greetings. It has been an interesting past few weeks. Things have happened in my life that can be considered major changes. One of which is the welcoming of a new job. Yes, I am now among the working class once again. It feels really good to be back to work. Over the past 7 months, I have done what was necessary to support a steady flow of income while I was unemployed and now I can do better with this new job. Thinking about that, I cannot help but wonder why people do not do the same thing when THEY are going through hard times. There are people out there that are perfectly content with doing nothing about their situation when they find themselves without an income stream. Why is that? Is that how they do it? Its becoming more and more rare to see a young adult actually extend him/herself to create an keep up a job. Rather it is easier to mooch off of the parents or beg from their friends (that is if their friends are working). What does that say about that person’s character? I for one do not accept the “there is nothing out there for me” type statements that you hear from the young adults when you lecture them on the basics of providing for them selves. It seems like it is easier to complain about it than do something about it.

See, generally kids out live their parents. It’s uncommon for that to go the other way. So IF the parents are the ones who “Go” first, then what happens to the young adults AFTER they/we are gone? What do they do then? Who do they “hook up” to after the parents die? I’ve heard that the parents “take care” of their kids by willing the remaining cash and other income streams to the kids but what exactly does that do? To me, what that says is “persevere, and when they die you get it all”. Not a very smart way to think if you ask me. See, the way it suppose to go is like this; Child graduates from high school, and either enters the military, or goes off to college, or wakes up the next day, buy’s the morning paper, and looks for a job. That to me is EFFORT, and effort grants support, IF it is sincere. I have no problem providing “core” necessities in the way of money, rides, food, etc. to a person who is making a sincere EFFORT to become what I call a “Productive Member of Society”. However, if I see that they are not being sincere, then why should I support that with cash and prizes? It’s like lighting money on fire and throwing it down a hole. Interesting. See, my new job has incorporated the option of hiring “seasonal” staff, and 90% of that seasonal staff are young adults, so I know they’re out there, it’s not like that mentality is becoming “extinct”.

I guess it’s just the rest of the masses that I see everyday asking for a hand out, or throwing a temper tantrum when mom or dad won’t buy that video game or other widget for the child. It’s disgraceful. One time, I went to the movies, and watched as a father brought his son to the movies and the kid was having a tantrum because he wanted money for this and money for that and pitched a royal bitch because he got a different flavor soda than what he “usually” gets. I almost felt sorry for the father. ALMOST. I just sat there and watched and thinking I was glad that I was not that kids “father”. I can tell you right now, that kid would not have had the same opportunity to have that tantrum if I was his father. There would have been no movie. The child’s actions would have cost him his movie time, plus he would have had a stinging sensation in his rear end once we got back to the car. His father should have got his son in check QUICK but he didn’t. That was a bad situation for the parent. Look, if you are an adult that has a job and provides for the family, or if you provide for yourself, good for you. If you have kids, that’s great. If those kids take advantage of you and your resources then you NEED to get a handle on that because if you do nothing, you will have a “freeloader” on your hands and when he/she is 21 and STILL living at home, and that will be your “reward” that you have not done enough of what it took to raise the child. Raising children is tough but it’s a pretty cool thing, Cutting the umbilical cord once they become adults is an even cooler thing. I raise my step children to look out for the future, prepare themselves by getting a good education and then making a decision to go with the military or college. If they (after it’s all done) decide to not do either, then they are left with only one option. GET A JOB and be on your way.

 “That’s How I Do It.”

Personal Accountability and Adulthood -Part 1

I. Ephesians 5:22-6:4 Considered

Ephesians 5:22-6:4 gives an outline of a Spirit-filled and unified family. This is God’s design for the family. This should be every household’s goal. The husband is ordained to leadership and accountable for his household. He should take the initiative for the direction and unity of his wife and children. This does not give a husband license to be a dictator. It is the responsibility of a man to raise his son to lead like this. Therefore, Christian men that aspire to marriage should always be honing leadership qualities and character.

Since the theme of Ephesians is unity, it is a no-brainer that Paul teaches the Ephesian churches in this epistle about practical unity between children and their parents. The child still at home is to obey his/her parents. This passage makes an obvious reference to Exodus 20. In Old Testament times in Israel, there were no government programs to enforce obedience to parents. There were no reform schools. If a child wandered from the faith or lived a rebellious lifestyle against his mother and father, he was stoned by the assembly. No “if’s” or “but’s” about it. The provision in the Mosaic Law that held children in check from rebelliously leaving the faith and staunchly dishonoring their parents was the fear of capital punishment. Capital punishment was not so much a provision for parents to demand blind obedience from their children, but was to reinforce faithfulness to Jehovah through the Mosaic covenant.

Today, a child still retains the God-given responsibility to obey and honor the parents. The terms “obedience” and “honour” are both used in Eph. 6. They are both commands. However, the terms are not synonymous. “Obey” means to heed or conform to authority. Children within the household are to obey their parents because ultimately they are obeying God. Little children do not always have the experience, foresight, wisdom, or discernment to make solid and wise life decisions. Therefore, children need to obey their parents because their mother and father often do possess these qualities. “Honour” retains a different definition than “obey.” “Honour” means to fix a valuation upon or to revere (Strong’s Concordance). Obedience means to follow in suit while honor means to give a good name. Obedience is a temporary responsibility until adulthood. Honor is a permanent responsibility (http://drtimwhite.com/category/ephesians-class/). A child must obey until he leaves home, but he must honor for the rest of his life.

Blind obedience is not what it takes to honor a parent. Living a life surrendered to God and His plan is what it takes to honor a parent. Everywhere we go, we must always be giving our parents a good name. Our lifestyle and level of commitment to God best determines what kind of reputation we are giving our parents. If we live lifestyles that honor our parents and are pleasing to God, we will not contract diseases from sinful habits (lung cancer, liver problems, STD’s). We will most likely live a long life span. This is a general principle. Surely we cannot say every young person or teenager who has died, did so because they disobeyed and dishonored their parents. That is simply not the case and Scripture does not give us the freedom to place God in that strict of a box. As an example, there were several kings in Israel and Judah that lived lives dishonoring to their parents, but they still lived long lives (they were the exceptions, rather than the rule). And vice-versa, Absolom was a son who’s life was cut short because of his dishonoring choices. If we rebel against parents and God and pursue a sinful lifestyle, God will let us feel the consequences of being a lifetime smoker or alcoholic-that’s a promise.

The last verse in this portion of Scripture is an exhortation to the parents. The authority parents have while their children are immature and still within the household is not permanent dictatorial rights to micromanage. The phrase “bring them up” literally means “raise them to maturity.” Again, we are hinted that parental authority is temporary and not permanent.  The goal is to raise kids who are Spiritually mature in the Lord (e.g. “bring them up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord.”) who can make their own decisions based on Scripture and leadership of the Holy Spirit.

Elementary behavior in the workplace

Have you ever found yourself facing a situation as an adult that you would almost swear you are still in elementary school?  I don’t find myself in many of these situations but on occasion I do.  I try to take the mature stance with the issue I face but I have concluded that it sometimes doesn’t pay to take that attitude.

Let me start by saying I have heard from many people, and outlets that office managers don’t like to act like babysitters or be referees.  (This could be any adult for that matter.)  I know I appreciate mature behavior from others.  Office superiors should deal with people as adults, however; sometimes they encounter elementary instances that they have to manage.  

Therefore I usually try to practice traditionally taught behaviors like ‘If you can’t say anything nice, don’t say nothing at all.’  Another thing I try not to do is use excesses.  Time and again I have heard people say that they tire of hearing them and it doesn’t affect how they will deal with the situation.  Recently I have found out that acting like an adult doesn’t pay off. 

You have heard the saying, ‘The squeaky wheel gets the grease’, that’s because it is true.  I found myself in this situation the other day at work.  I became frustrated and angry with a co-worker who acted rather selfishly instead of employing traditional values such as ‘team work’ and ‘taking care of the company’.  I admit I was storming around a bit and bumped into her.  I didn’t immediately say ‘excuse me’ or ’sorry’.  Instead there was some tattle tailing and accusations that happened.  I didn’t use any excuse because I felt the boss doesn’t want to hear it.  Besides, I was trying to act mature about it and move on.  However, in light of the situation, because I didn’t defend myself, I’ve been treated by many in the office like the evil person in the situation. 

If I would have defended myself, I might be respected more because then others might consider my perspective instead of siding with my co-worker.  Here I am trying to be mature about the situation but I find myself facing backlash from everyone in the office because I dropped it yet the other person didn’t. I had intentions of still apologizing but her continued behavior made me feel like I shouldn’t.  Since she was the squeaky wheel there was more empathy for her.  Her vocalization, and continuing petty behaviors presents me with a problem.   Her immature action and lack of good work ethic affects my job and what people think of me despite my continuous positive job performance.  I admit that I am human and make my share of mistakes but overall I am a valuable employee. 

If I condone immature behavior as an adult then I am not promoting self-sufficiency and wise decision-making for those who I may influence including my child(ren).  This is a value that is held personally and socially.  On the other hand, as I have learned, that at times those elementary reactions do pay off in the workplace.  It is better to practice selflessness so that we take care of others and hopefully it would be done likewise.  However, selfishness in certain instances seem to pay off at times.  I have always hated office politics and try not to take part in them.  However, if you don’t play by the rules of office politics your own position suffers.  Thus, I’m at an impasse. 

As a parent, I have no good advice for my child who may find themselves in this situation.  In my heart and my gut I would recommend mature behavior, but in life where others don’t practice it, it doesn’t pay off. 

I can only hope that the person who’s placed in the middle values the same things I do and recognizes and appreciates it likewise.  Will I continue to behave the same way?  Should I take my cue from others and follow?  Should I lead by example yet my attitude may pay off?  I don’t know.  I can only pray about it and live for the things that really matter in my life.
