    My eldest child is a difficult one as he lives with him mum and only comes once a month at the most, she lets him eat what he pleases but when he is hear if he eats a reasonable amount of food at meal times then he can have a treat afterwards. My youngest child is still bottle fed and my middle...

    My step-son's real dad just died

    It's disgusting that no one informed your partner, they may not have bonded but he was still his biological father. I'm a bit late coming to this so all I will say is that I hope telling him went ok and he is starting to heal and get over the shock.

    Sleepover

    My kids are still young so won't be having sleep overs for a while, but if I were in your situation then I would stay out of the way.

    What I made at College.

    @Bear, I haven't seen your thread no. If you can connect to the internet on your phone you can upload them to photobucket to add the photo's to the forum. @polamalu43, Gammon is a thick cut of bacon. Taken from a different part of the pig, it tends to be a little more salty than bacon, but...

    What I made at College.

    As some of you may know I have recently gone back to college to retrain. I finally got tired of working with computers and decided I want to be a chef. With that in mind I wanted to start a thread showing what I have been preparing and cooking whilst at college. I'll post pictures and what it is...

    Long distance parenting

    There is no way his mother would let him live with me. I think if I even suggested it she would stop him coming to see me at all.

    First Timer - Just Discovered the Gender

    Congratulations not only on your first child but on agreeing on a name that quickly. My kids names were still up in the air whilst my wife was in labour.

    It's an ongoing thing in my house, the kids are a nightmare to stop playing whilst trying to wash them.

    Congratulations Jason. I know when my last son was born I was so nervous that the midwife had to get him dressed in the hospital.

    Why don't they just finish it?

    I encourage my son to eat everything that is on his plate, if he doesn't he doesn't sometimes people not just children can't finish what they are given. The biggest problem I have with my eldest is the amount of time it takes him to eat.

    Controlling Your Temper

    I turn away from them and take a deep breath, if my wife is around I'll go out of the room for 5 mins. I never yell at my kids, it isn't productive as you've said, I found that out with my eldest son.

    What are your hobbies?

    I love cooking too like most of you except for me it's not a hobby it's work. Doesn't stop me doing it every chance I get though.

    Long distance parenting

    Unfortunately going to see him is not an option, neither me nor my wife drive and public transport would cost £80 each that would be £160 for the whole family to go to see him for 1 day. Throw in with that the hours I work and how difficult it is to get time off.

    How did you meet their mother?

    I met my wife at work, I was going through a difficult break up and she started work there. She was with someone at the time but we became friends and would go for a drink together.
