Lessons in character, courtesy of Gov. Sanford
I’ll leave the political and religious discussion of Gov. Sanford’s deeds to the editorial pages and instead focus on the character lessons his actions can teach not just us parents but our older kids as well. These are just a few of the many harsh life lessons (clichés and all) that teenagers can reference as they navigate the stormy waters of their personal and social lives.
