I reckon I'm Australian

Oh don't get me going about the education system .

There is an Education System?!  REALLY??

Yeah, in the 60's my mum taught me to appreciate music, cook, be polite and doing well at school.  My dad taught me how to shoot, trap, be humorous and hammer a nail and build a shelter.  Those  true 'aussie' skills are lost.

Now the education system supports young student striking and marching.  Thank goodness my youngest son says, "Dad, can I stay home tomorrow. Not interested in that crap."   He can cook, is polite, clean, cut wood with precision and stoke the fire in winter for me and his mum.  A real Aussie champ.

What's his future?  Only 17 and frightened of saying the wrong thing and offending someone.  Not something me and 'true love' have taught him.  Came from schooling.  I've reminded him, while out here on our selection, he doesn't have to keep apologising to anyone leastways me and his mum.  What he says doesn't offend us.  Kinda how I grew up in my family. 

Yeah, thanks Rogue Nation for an Australian site.

Kind regards,

Bally:)
