Son, all I’ve ever asked of my marines is that they obey my orders as they would the word of God. — Full Metal Jacket

If I’m paying for you to have a roof over your head, food in your mouth, and a warm bed to sleep in, then you do as I say.  It’s just that simple.  If you want to direct your own life in complete independence, express opinions and expect that they will be listened to, or be allowed to tell me to take a long walk off a short pier, start paying for yourself. This goes for my children, and for the large percentage of my fellow citizens who live off the sweat of my brow.
