The premise of the novel Pay It Forward is one that any person can implement in his or her own life, at any time. It begins with doing a favor for another person-- without any expectation of being paid back. Indeed one would request that the recipient of that favor do the same for someone else: ideally for three other people. The unconditional favors can be large or small. As Trevor observes: it doesn't have to be a big thing. It can just seem that way, depending on whom you do it for.

Look around your neighborhood. If someone needs their grass cut, yard cleaned or something else, than you can intervene and help them without spending a little more than sweat and 3 dollars in gas. The elderly often have a difficult time taking care of things like this. This is small, but could prove to be a big help to someone who needs it. Another way is to donate clothes and items you are not using to charity. This also helps in a big way.

Pay in kind. Like if you can't pay the country doctor with cash, pay him with a chicken. You can clean someone's house, or yard. Take them dinner, or out to dinner. Volunteer at various places, etc. Sometimes it's just a smile, or a hug.

Bring happiness and joy to someone else. Think of others before your self. Do a good turn daily as the Boy Scouts say.

Pay it forward means to help someone out. It does not mean to pay someone. lol!
Just help a friend or stranger with a small daily task or with a problem they are having.

if your dad beat you, then you can beat your own kids.
(just get a permission slip from the local psychologist, because you know, no one is really responsible for their actions because they were molested/taunted/beat up/tripped/had a bad day/were having their period. there is always some excuse.)
