God bless the parents who dru.gged us

The following was sent to me via e-mail, and I believe it would still stand true today if it were applied by parents.

Mothers Who Dru.gged Us!

The other day, someone at a store in our town read that a methamphetamine lab had been found in an old farmhouse in the adjoining county and he asked me a rhetorical question.

“Why didn’t we have a dru.g problem when you and I were growing up?”

I replied, “I had a dru.g problem when I was young:

I was dru.g to church on Sunday morning. I was dru.g to church for weddings and funerals.

I was dru.g to family reunions and the community socials no matter the weather.

I was dru.g by my ears when I was disrespectful to s.

I was also dru.g to the woodshed when I disobeyed my parents, told a lie, brought home a bad report card, did not speak with respect, spoke ill of the teacher or the preacher, or if I didn’t put forth my best effort in everything that was asked of me.

I was dru.g to the kitchen sink to have my mouth washed with soap if I uttered profanity.

I was dru.g out to pull weeds in mom’s garden and flowerbeds and out of dad’s fields.

I was dru.g to the homes of family, friends and neighbors to help out some poor soul who had no one to mow the yard, repair the clothesline, or chop some firewood; and, if my mother had ever known that I took a single dime as a tip for this kindness, she would have me back to the woodshed.”

Those dru.gs are still in my veins and they affect my behavior in everything I do, say or think. They are stronger than or ; and if today’s children had this kind of dru.g. problem, America would be a better place.

God bless that parents that dru.gged us. Have a nice day and a better tomorrow.

Logan.. I think it lost a little something when you "cut and pasted".

I've read it before, so I understand it, but there seems to be some words missing, or perhaps one word over and over.....

Yeah, the censor on the site. Maybe we can get it fixed.

FYI...everytime you see "ged" it is Dru.gged

[Logan]

There, I think I got it fixed.

Yeah, this whole censorship is kinda being a pain. Maybe you can get the point of it though. I think it is pretty dang true.
