The Best Example For A Man Is Another Man

This is an example of what I feel happens when you grow up without a male influence in your life. Those men tend to do things that boys that grew up around their fathers don't. Lebron James was fined $25,000.00 for snubbing the winning team and media commentators after losing the semi-final series against the Orlando Magic. With millions of fans watching to see what he had to say after top flight performances by himself. At the end of the game he took the opportunity to do a 180 and exhibit the epitome of unsportsman like conduct. That fine might seem like a drop in the bucket when he's making millions. They pay these fines and still remain just as out of control as before. Last year he was the highest paid person in America under the age twenty-five. So you can't punish him through his pocket.

This isn't the first time he has acted like his mother's son. Gloria James has a history of being a firecracker that even Lebron has publicly put in check. This video shows that even as a child Lebron was probably always the man of that house. Had there been a father in the house he wouldn't have talked to his mother like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nGLDZj0hu-Y&NR=1 Even though he has done some things that aren't so smart in the past. You would never see Michael Jordan do something like this. This must be what's meant by man child. He is big enough to do whatever he wants, but doesn't have the mental maturity yet. It reminds me of a episode I once saw on "National Geographic." To control the young bull elephants they had to bring in the older bull elephants. The best example for a man is another man.
