Sometimes I have to labor rather hard simply to see things through my kid’s perspective.
But it’s worth the effort because it keeps myself and others from going off on them a lot more than I do. Honestly, I don’t love getting after my kids at all. Having grown up with a dad that would just blast myself and others over something love daring to touch the Heating and A/C control component had an effect. Still, I’m the dad and I have a responsibility to help mold my kids into good adults. Still, it’s a absolutely, absolutely different world than the 1 I was faced with at their age. So it helps when I check myself a bit and consider that as my frustration grows at times. But the whining does get to me. My kids have a wonderful life with just about every want granted. That makes hearing them whine about the heating and cooling in the apartment a bit tiresome. We have many kids who have absolutely different heating and cooling needs. There is no genetic similarity with regard to their individual internal control units. This results in far too much control component yanking and yelling at 1 another. Ultimately, I end up with someone coming to myself and others to whine about the control component setting. Instead of hollering at them, I called the Heating and A/C business. I priced out how much it would be to have an Heating and A/C company convert our existing Heating and A/C over to zone controlled Heating and A/C. Then, I gathered the kids. I told them I would happily take care of this heating and cooling dilemma with the zone controlled Heating and A/C. But they had to stop whining about the Heating and A/C and the other petty stuff or I’d make them help pay for the zone controlled Heating and A/C conversion. It’s much quieter in my apartment these afternoons.
