So shouldn't we get the respect we deserve? Sadly it usually doesn't turn out that way. We want that paycheck so bad that we would follow their rules, put our values aside, and loose our rights.

Step parents, Hero's on Call

What's the Price for Your Precious Moments?
Everyone knows you can't put a price on life's moments, but we have a habit of letting them slip by anyway. With today's busy schedule and need to pay bills, we find ourselves on auto pilot and miss out on the simple things. More importantly life's most precious and priceless moments.
