We went to a few shows at a local club a few years ago, but haven't been to any recently. They were fun, the 2-drink minimum was reasonable, and we all had a good time. It was a much more entertaining experience that watching stand-up on television at home. If you enjoy comedy and haven't seen...

We have a Wii too. I've "hot-rodded" ours to use an external drive loaded with about 300 games. Instead of the normal interface you get when the Wii starts up, it loads some 3rd party homebrew code that allows us to flip through the available titles quickly and launch them without messing about...

Funny, I heard pretty good things about the latest Muppets movie. It has an overall rating of 7.6 at IMDB which isn't stellar by any means but is still pretty good. Maybe you're just older now and such things no longer hold your interest like they did when you were a child?

If you're spending the time with your kids that you should, this should not be an issue at all. if relationships are taking priority over your children and cutting to the time you spend with them, then you need to reevaluate your priorities. Your children are your first priority, above all else.

So often people feel that because they have split with someone that they have to automatically hate the new person they are with. Glad to hear that you haven't fallen for that mentality. You may not be best friends, but it's good that you can get a long and be civil!

Unfortunately, between income from child support, public aid, and other assistance, and the cost of daycare and healthcare, there is little no incentive for many people to get off the public payroll, leaving the child support payee to suffer much of the hardship.

That's super cute and a great way to help bring some closure for young ones who can't really grasp the concept of death., Great idea, Dad! Ours isn't a religious household, so I've taken a different tack. I explain that people's bodies are kind of like machines, and just like machines...

It has been my experience that child support agencies and judges care very little about any hardship you may have and won't hesitate to throw you in jail over unpaid child support (causing you to owe even more!). You can petition the court for a change in the order, but don't get your hopes up...

I say yeah - go for it, but be sure that your boy understands that what they are seeing it not "real". It's more like television and the movies where people are playing characters in order to tell a story and entertain an audience. Also, he should understand the the people they are watching are...

It's possible that our grandson is just being a good student and getting him homework done right away :) On the other hand, he could be ignoring it, which is not good. Many schools have online access to their gradebooks. Talk with your grandson's parents and see if such access is possible and...

Congratulations! It's a long, tough road as a parent and the responsibility is huge, but it's also the most rewarding, satisfying thing you're likely ever do. You'll learn to feel and have emotions that you've never known before. I just can't describe it, words just don't convey what it's like...

My father left when I was pretty young and my step father was pretty abusive, so I really had no father relationship and had to make do with uncles, friends' fathers, and television/movies for cues on "being a man".

I'm done having kids now, but I would certainly take my children's opinion into consideration when decided to have another child or not. I would ask them about their opinion and why it is, but also explain that ultimately the decision is up to Mom and Dad and what happens may or may not be what...

I look like my father and and have almost no physical appearance qualities in common with my mother or her family. Oddly enough, I'm pretty tall at 6' 2" and stand head and shoulders above people on both sides of my family. I have a half sister (same mother, different father) who looks nothing...

I wanted a boy the first time around, but got a girl. I wasn't disappointed in the least though. It's been an awesome experience raising her. The second time around I wanted a boy again, mainly because I didn't get one the first time and thought it'd bee cool to have one of each. This time I did...

Don't you think that when a child finds out that Santa Claus isn't a real thing they realize that their parents have basically been lying to them for years? I don't think this is a good thing and undermines your credibility with your child in other areas. In my opinion, my child should be able...

Not at all. Taking care of your children and making a good home for them isn't womanly or feminine - it's being a parent and providing what your children need. You're not doing a woman's job, you're doing a parent's job.

Dads out there that loved video games back in the day, might enjoy playing them again using and emulator and ROMs. An emulator is a program you install on your computer that acts like another piece of hardware such as a game console, a different computer, or an arcade game. My favorite...

Like others who have already posted here, the pants are pretty much shared in our house. For the most part the duties are divided up, we each have our own set of responsibilities, but we often help each other out and collaborate on responsibilities not "owned" by one person or the other.

I think it's more dependent on the person. Some people are cut out for working at home and online business and some people are not. Either gender can be successful, provided they have the knowledge and motivation to do so. In my experience, men tend to be more technical, which gives them a...
