    New baby with pets

    I'd be careful of ANY animal around a young one. They all have a distant wild streak in them and even the tamest of cats, dogs or whatever you may have can lash out in jealousy or whatever emotion they may feel at the time when they are provoked. I grew up around dogs, horses, and have had tons...

    Belly pads to support

    I have to agree... consideration is key, but to sit there and emulate being a woman seems downright stupid to me. If you're a man, you're a man...women are women. There's nothing wrong with having great sympathy for all that your woman is going through, but that doesn't mean we have to stoop to...

    Too extreme or just right?

    Dad was hurt, and angry... and he did what he did. I don't blame him, and it doesn't matter what way he destroyed it, that's his decision, and I have a feeling he chose the gun to show his EXTREME hurt more than anything. men often mask their hurt with symptoms of anger, but underneath, I'm sure...

    Too much fast food

    As a fitness professional, I would have to say try for healthful home-cooked meals more like 7 times per week. Even at that, with the state of most store bought foods this day you are lucky, and not likely to get enough actual nutrients even in the best case scenario, so eating from fast food...

    Taxes and divorce

    You know what, sometimes as a man you just buck up and take one for the team. And whilst you may not be a "team" any more, you are still the man and as such, it is this man's opinion, hat men should just be the man and let the woman have the easy way out. A man can and should be able to rise to...

    Grandparents friends with mom and dad

    If it works for you... good enough. The well-being of the children's psychological outlook is paramount to all other concerns, and if this situation makes them fine, it IS fine. Sounds like a healthy respect to me, which can never be a bad thing. How can love and respect shown to others ever...

    child blocking

    Where I come from the police would say without a court order there is nothing they will do. I guarantee you that. Written agreements will not circumvent the law in any situation, and without a court-ordered document that the police can go by...they will do nothing. Oh, I forgot, they will do...

    Do single dads have more time for their kids?

    ... more time with the kids? I think that being a single dad usually, at least for most poeple, will find you with LESS time for your children... unfortunately. At least that what's I've experienced With all the extra running around you have to do to shop, take the kids wherever they need to...

    Awkward questions

    child asking about if you'll have another baby? I don't see anything wrong with your child asking if you'll ever have another baby. Kids often ask these type things for a myriad of reasons, like: maybe they are curious if they will ever have to share daddy with someone else, a mild jealousy...

    Friends with new partner of ex

    friends with ex's new partner? Gotta admit, being friends with your ex's new partner is strange, but I've heard of it before. I guess that's because if you couldn't get along with the ex, often it will be hard to get along with the new boyfriend... but when people are mature enough and can get...

    Talking behind my back

    talk behind your back? if people talk behind your back that is a shame on them, not you. If they are any kind of stand up people, if they had concerns about you for any reason, they should come talk to you about them like concerned adults and offer help if needed to help what they perceive to...

    Trusting Family to Watch the Kids

    watching the children Having a hard time finding, or should I say trusting family members to watch the kids? Wow, that's scary when you think about it. It's sad when we come to a point in our society wherein we are afraid to allow family members to watch our kids for fears of improprieties...

    Resemblance

    Lieutenant... suspicious? That's funny. You know what? There are so many factors and variables that go into how a child will ultimately look that it's really hard to figure these things out. For example, my eldest son, now almost 28, looked a heck of a lot like his mother and nothing like me...

    Custody Battle

    answer Well, what are his children worth to him? I don't see how money could possibly be a factor when you are talking about your children. if a woman is going to be totally outrageous and not follow the law, then she seems to be an unfit parent, and I would think barring any outrageous...

    How to solve psychological problem in children?

    Get things stright... Your children should come first no matter what. To suggest that they should need to wait while you cavot with the friends is ludicrous. You make your children, then they should not be ignored just because some "outsiders" come into the picture for a few hours. Your...

    How much time is enough.....

    The more the better... It's my opinion that the more time you spend with your children the better. let me ask, who better than a loving father to show your kids what the world should be like? You want to leave hat up to the neighborhood kids> I don't think so. They usually learn a lot of bad...

    "Hitting" Toddler

    Take a stand... Hitting is never right, and should NEVER be accepted. you have to make it clear in no uncertain terms to your children that hitting shall not, and will not ever be tolerated. if you do not make it clear right way, you will have kids that grow up to hit wives etc and maybe get...

    First hair cut

    Whever... There is no too soon, or too late. You do these sort of things whn you feel your child is ready. C'mon now, is a hair cut really that important a move to worry about it so much? I think not. Look, if you think your child' hair is getting to long... cut it. Just be careful with the...

    Girls and boyfriends

    Curious... A 9 year old girl with a boyfriend is too young. Hopefully, it is nothing more than a glorified friend thing, but I would watch closely having 9 year old youngsters calling each other boyfriend - girlfriend. Maybe the term just "friend" would be more appropriate at this age? I'm not...
