20:18.28resplinlol
20:18.49resplinxp_prg: Do you still live in the Bay Area?
20:18.54xp_prgno, I am in hawaii now
20:19.08resplinTough duty, eh?
20:20.29xp_prgwell it is expensive here but besides that it is good ;>
20:20.47xp_prgeverything is at least twice as much
20:21.24resplinWhat took you from the fog of the Bay Area to Hawaii?
20:22.21xp_prgits a long story
20:22.45xp_prgI met a girl in Nepal and then went there, married here, then just happen to end up in Hawaii
20:23.15resplinSounds like a big adventure. <grin>
20:23.27xp_prgit was :>
20:23.32xp_prghave you tied the knot?
20:23.55resplinYeah. Just celebrated 13 years together. 5 kiddos running around. No trip to Nepal so far, but one day. <grin>
20:24.11xp_prgI respect your family-fu greatly
20:24.51resplinIt's fun.
20:25.52xp_prgwhere are you located resplin?
20:26.35resplinUtah.
20:26.52xp_prgI have been thinking of relocating there
20:27.03xp_prgisn't there so many fun things to do as a family there?
20:27.23xp_prgin hawaii there is no where to go dancing that is not rap and alcohal
20:27.45resplinMy oldest isn't old enough to be worried about social dancing yet (thank goodness).
20:27.52resplinWe play in the mountains a lot.
20:27.57xp_prgoh ok
20:28.21resplinI have two neighbors who grew up in Hawaii. One of them even  decided he likes the snow. <grin>
20:29.04resplinThey told me it is harder in Hawaii to give your kids opportunities around jobs and school, but they enjoyed beach time the way I enjoy hiking with my kiddos.
20:29.11jsmithresplin: My oldest turns 16 next week....
20:29.21jsmithresplin: That's scary!
20:29.44resplin16 is a complex age! My oldest is 11 and it is already giving us headaches.
20:31.16resplinjsmith: Looking at the dates for OpenWest, I am realizing it conflicts with the Alfresco Meet-up in Moscow that I am trying to get invited to.
20:31.18resplin<grin>
20:31.26resplinxp_prg: Are you LDS?
20:31.56xp_prgyes I am
20:32.18xp_prgcongrats jsmith, I am sure you have prepared him/her, do not worry :>
20:32.48resplinjsmith and I have had many conversations about the pros and cons of raising your family in Utah vs somewhere else.
20:33.11xp_prgwhat are the cons?
20:33.12jsmithresplin: There's a pro?
20:33.22jsmithducks
20:33.27resplinlol
20:33.54jsmithxp_prg: The con to raising your kids in Utah is that they often end up very lukewarm.... not hot and not cold.... but halfway between "saints" and "ain'ts"
20:34.07resplinxp_prg: My wife was raised in New England. When her friends were partying she would say "I'm Mormon" and they would stop bothering her about stuff. My friends would say "Have a drink, I'm Mormon too!"
20:34.23jsmithRight... why don't you take one Mormon fishing with you?
20:34.26xp_prgyes I see your point
20:34.39jsmith.... because he'll drink all your beer....
20:34.45jsmithHow do you stop him from doing that?
20:34.51jsmithBring along another Mormon!
20:35.06resplinlol
20:35.14jsmithHere, living away from Utah, my kids *have* to make a more conscious choice about which way to go
20:35.16xp_prgwell, most of the time youth want to rebel if you will, my idea is that they need a good way to rebel
20:35.19resplinThere are a lot of pros though. It is cool to be able to have a gospel conversation with your cab driver, etc.
20:35.29jsmithDoesn't mean they always make the right choice, but it's a more stark choice.
20:35.34xp_prgthe only way I know that is a good way to rebel is to be straight edge
20:35.46jsmithI grew up in a town that was over 90% LDS
20:35.59jsmithMy wife grew up in a town that was less than 1% LDs
20:36.09jsmithAnd we both agreed that we didn't want to raise our kids in Utah
20:36.33xp_prgI have recently come to understand how important converts are to the church
20:36.36resplinThe funny thing is that my wife and I planned to not raise our kids in Utah either, yet here we are!
20:36.39xp_prghow special they really are
20:36.41resplinGod's got interesting plans for us sometimes.
20:36.45jsmithI don't want my kids to be "social" Mormons... I want them to choose for themselves what they *really* want and then live it.
20:36.49jsmithresplin: No kidding....
20:38.21xp_prgwell missions help them to understand the right way don't you think?
20:43.47resplinDid for me.
20:44.11resplinAnd it helps to go out of your way to meet everyone in your community, rather than just the people you see at Church.
20:44.20resplinAnd take your kids to their friend's church services.
20:44.30resplinThose are some of the things we have tried to do.
20:49.52xp_prgwell my plan is to get them heavily involved with sports, take them to seminary, so they will be too tired to be bad :>
20:50.49resplinGreat strategy. I would love to take my kids surfing one day.
20:51.34resplinI want to emulate the strategy used by the dad of one of my close friends. He always took us rock climbing because you could have a real heart-to-heart, and drop the rope if you didn't like the answer.
20:51.36xp_prgya I was in swimming when I was in highschool on a community team, we had early morning workout and afternoon plus weights, I was dead tired all the time
20:57.24xp_prgdrop the rope?
20:59.25resplinHe would belay us, and threaten to walk away (leave us unprotected) if we didn't shape up. He was joking of course.
20:59.34xp_prgoh ok
21:16.34xp_prgwell I believe in this: the greatest thing you can do for another person is be an example of the right way to live
21:20.49xp_prgand then the other thing is to serve others, when you serve others you actually heal and help yourself
21:31.52xp_prgif you help them to know these principles it will help them alot I think
21:38.51resplin+1
21:39.51xp_prgremember that Jesus said the greatest among us shall be your servant
21:40.12xp_prgteach them to serve selflessly and to always be looking to serve others
21:46.17xp_prgand always love them too :L>
21:46.28xp_prgthat is the most important thing
21:46.38xp_prglove breaks down all barriers
