A young man comes home and says "Dad, just got my driver's license and would like to use the family car".
Father replies, "O.K. son, but first you have to get good grades in school, keep your room clean, make sure the yard is neat and cut your hair. Come back in a few months and then we'll see".
Several months pass and the young man comes into the house with his report card in his hand. "Dad, I got great marks on my report card, I've been keeping my room as neat as a pin and the yard is always ship-shape, how about letting me use the car."
Father replies, "That's all true but you didn't cut your hair".
Son says, "But dad, Jesus had long hair."
Father replies, "Yes son, you're absolutely right and he walked everywhere he went".
Not the greatest joke but I related to it cause it's how parents make a point with their kids.
