What is a Role Model?

People have been complaining about the behavior of Ben Roethlisberger
and the fact that he is a poor role model for our children.

It is great to have your kids realize that these athletes work hard to get to their position but don't encourage them as role models. Because they are humans and human beings make mistakes. But you could explain that fact of life to your children.

"The problem with me making a comment is that I don't know the facts. I don't know what happened. I wasn't there. I wasn't a part of it. I've read accounts, but we don't know the truth," said Russell. This quote comes from Steeler great Andy Russell

Think about this people none of us know the facts but many of us are trying Ben in the media and in our homes.
We do not have the facts therefore we can not be judge and jury.
