So my friends say I shouldn't adopt a kid right now and a goldfish isn't enough responsibility so I was thinking of volunteering as a big brother. Has anyone done this before? If so how was your experience?

I've heard the background checks are really tough.  So if you have ever been arrested even for something minor you might want to reconsider that goldfish.

 

 

 

But seriously, never arrested. I'm clean.

What type of responsibility are you looking for?

Just to serve others in general or to attach yourself to a person and try to guide them through life?  The reason I ask is age related.  Sometimes you might want to start slow and volunteer for things that serve the public in general and then move to a more one on one situation.

kudos to you however for looking to help at all though, not many that look past themselves

Never had much of a family growing up. Dad was either drunk, in jail or just not there. Mom always worked and was impossible to please. Only child. Not having any support growing up was rough. I don't want another child to go through that. Everyone should have someone.

Yeah id say you definitely fit the bill of over compensating for a low inner self esteem

 

its important to confront your past and work through it or the same old patterns will continue to happen 

 

as far as being a big brother its a great thing to do. Id be carful though, make sure you arent doing it to boost up your persona and what you precieve others will think of you.

Is it wrong to help someone while also getting something out of it at the same time?

      Man whether it's the Panthers or the Hornets it's crazy how many foolish talking heads there are in the local media. I just unsubscribed from locked on Hornets. Doug Branson with his cheesy mustache is an absolute clown especially when his partner isn't on. Talking about trading LaMelo because he can't win basketball games by himself with no semblance whatsoever of a legitimate Center. These YouTube personalities will say anything for a damn click.

      Dream big: Imagine this future and tell me how you feel

      I’m hoping for that exact same scenario, two seconds would be big for us. I’d hope for 3 impact players. A WR/DL/DE that can contribute like this current class would be key to our rebuild.

      Forget about Bryce, Dave Canales is who we should be talking about.

      By outlaw4 · Posted

      When I look at what I can find, a carryover problem from last season is our receivers are still unable to get enough separation on a consistent basis. Canales is certainly better at scheming them open, like how he sneaked out Thielen for a big play. But then he's also having Thielen running routes he frankly shouldn't be doing anymore. I feel part of the RZ issues is not really having anyone - after trading Diontae - who can make those quick cuts on a short field to give whoever is under center a wider window to throw. We also only have one guy with blazing speed in Thompkins and from what I could see, he's really used more to draw away coverage. I bring this all up because what Canales needs for sustained success - other than QB - is the other receiver pieces we'll be getting in the offseason.  Otherwise, I have to say that Canales isn't as afraid to be aggressive offensively. As others mentioned, still doesn't run the ball enough at times. Finally, I still feel his playcalls still doesn't line up with his mantra of getting rid of the ball within x amount of seconds. Maybe I count too slow. Oh, and I'm glad Canales first game after a bye looked good. I feared he'd be like Ron Rivera where we would fall flat on our faces.
