There are so many different fads going on that I have now become one of those parents who just is not cool enough to understand my kids. When my son wanted a pair of Air Jordan sneakers I thought that it would be no problem and of course I promised him the world.

Now, I see that my son trapped me into this promise because realistically I can not wait until that one day of the year when they are sold and try to compete with all these moguls that have the time and money to spend actually getting a pair. I had no idea that these sneakers were still so popular as I remember the craze when I was a kid.
