Peaceful right?

Dear FutureMe, This is another email from yourself regarding how you were raised and how you will treat your kids. Today’s big lesson, yeah **** that, was mom’s ******** over my email and privacy *****. When you have a kid, you’re going to buy them everything they want basically- a XBox, Playstation, NBA2k24, etc. You’re not going to look through their ****. You’re hopefully gonna marry a chill *** wife that’s fun to be around with our kids. You want your kids to love you like a best friend, instead of the fear-love relationship that went on with you and Mom/Dad. List of things I never got-YOU WANT YOUR KIDS TO HAVE ALL THIS **** Christmas and birthday presents after age 12 Privacy- mom looking through **** A fun vacation A fun summer (those were ***** that involved going on *** road trips and ******* studying SAT, but remember how you got away with having fun anyway?) The allowing to take a break and play without being ******* at A proper education of things most boys know how to do- swim, bike, play basketball, football. (thanks bro. I’d be a ******* useless sack of **** if it weren’t for you) -allow em to try out too, make your kid as happy as possible GOOD CLOTHES. I want my kid to be fresh at school, and swagged out. Not a bum *** ***** wearing 30$ shoes and baggy *** jeans. (Thanks aunt for getting me some nice clothes) (and alan for probably getting me shoes this summer of 2016) ****, if my wife is black/latina and smokes weed, I’ll ask my kid if he wants some too. The allowing to go out without the fear of being turned down A choice of what i want to do. (Take advanced classes, play piano) OH YEAH! Don’t overstress your kids grades. They’re what you would’ve gotten if it weren’t for mom and dad. Just don’t get Ds and Fs...I probably wouldn’t care even if they did tbh. *Remember yahboy Alan through all this. **IF MOM AND DAD ARE STILL ****** WHEN YOU 24, WRITE A LETTER CONTAINING EVERYTHING ABOUT LIVING IN FEAR AND SHAME. Something like, (You guys both were making 6 figures a year but wouldn’t spend the money to get me some nice clothes. I looked like a ****** bum all through school cuz of y’all, and I only got good clothes from Alan, Grandma and Grandpa, Aunt and Uncle) ***Try to go to China with Alan, visit grandma and grandpa, aunt and uncle, and hua-yi-qiao + hua-yi-dai >Careers to consider Teacher- you wanna be a chill teacher that everyone likes. Be like Mr. Canupp. Mrs. Kulling or Lansing, your science teachers in 6th, 8th, and 9th grade. Bartender at night. FUTURE ***** JAMES
