“Suck it Up, Buttercup” bill.

[Duchess]

My parents thought that education was important, all of us were expected to go to college, there was never any discussion about it, but they also thought that life experience was important, having "street smarts", if you will. It's important to learn as you grow, one grows from failures and disappointments. I know that may sound hokey to some of you but a lot of what I learned as a kid helped me a great deal as an adult. I've had failures and disappointments and because of that I know how to deal with them. I wasn't sheltered and there was a point it was sink or swim. I had life skills before I ever left home and I'm grateful for it. I know the value of a buck too.
