I wasn't sure where to put this, since it could fit in Music and in Worldwide News (since it IS news, lol)!

Anyway, I've always been a fan of The Police and Sting's my fave of the group, but this article made me admire him even more and give him mad props. He said he wants his children to learn the value of the dollar and he doesn't want his fortune to be "albatrosses around their necks".

I respect this move to the max, because the culture of entitlement has killed strong work ethic in many of today's younger generation, especially the celebrity set (i.e., the Kardashians, Hiltons, etc.) Since he came from humble beginnings and had to work to build what he has today, I see no problem in his children learning how to do the same: earn your OWN keep.

Michael should have done that (like he did to his siblings).


Kudos to Sting! :clapping: :punk:

Yep, I agree. That's the way kids should be brought up!
