Words of Wisdom to Young Folks from Goldsboro-- Part 1

From the March 24th Goldsboro (NC) News-Argus "Hard to hear" editorial

These are some guidelines young people can use as they approach adulthood.  I am just listing them, but the paper went into more detail.

1.  It is not as right decision to have a child out of wedlock, when you are 16 years old or you cannot take care of him or her properly.  (I'd go even farther and say don't have one until 20 or older.)

2.  Education is your ticket out or in.  Even if that simply means finishing high school.

3.  You can succeed without a fancy college degree, but not without hard work.  (Too many young people today expect high-paying jobs immediately.
