I'm not a father. But I know how tough it is when you have a 22 year old arsehole still living in your house, so Happy Father's Day to all of you and I hope you all had a great day. I took my pops out for a round of golf(in which he kicked the crap out of me) and then a round of beer. It was a good night.
I know you think you do,and I appreciate the thought ,but until you are in a situation Leg, you can't possibly know what it's like to raise someone who thinks every day they got smarter and you got dumber,just sayin'.
I appreciate that , you don't KNOW HOW MUCH. Maybe I'll tell people about my day yesterday once the shock wears off.You're probably right. But I do sympathize with those fathers.
I'm a dad to two (4 and 1) and a stepdad to one (13). All girls!!!
Got cards and gifts from all three. Best job in the world
So I'm guessing the first lil sis delighted your step daughter and the second embarrassed her. That's how it went for us.
My daughter is actually my step daughter, found out she was having a bro. at 15 and was thrilled, when we had the second (an oopsie antibiotics and BC pills don't mix) she was 17 and mortified ,she was sayin' " my friends will think that's all you two do
Let's make this Father's Week ,we have the power Phx is on vacation, Primes a pretty macho kind of guy, he can dig a lil patriarcentrism ( I made it up) for old times sake,BTW where are ou women folk wishing us studs a HFD er week
God bless you for the special attention and love your "job" requires. I have 2 boys of my own, 27 & 20, and although neither were planned both are the greatest gifts a man could ever receive. Happy Fathers Week to all of you Dads out there in RODville!Step daugher is delighted with both. She got a little jealous the first time round but she was only 9 so understandable I suppose.
My 4 year old was born at 26 weeks, 4 days and weighed 1lb, 10oz. Thank god for the free healthcare we get here because she was in hospital for 3 months before being allowed home. She was diagnosed with autism at 2 years old as well so its been challenging but she's worth every second. The 1 year old is the boy we never had by the look of things. She doesn't sit still and is constantly looking to cause trouble. Wouldn't change any of it for the world (except maybe the autism!)
I put this on the main board because Dads (REAL Dads) need top billing.
Enjoy your day. You sure as hell earned it.

You don't know what real fear is until you have children, especially when they first start driving.
I can't imagine what that call must have been like. Thank God he was okay.It doesn't stop there ,it's still a nightmare,within the last 6 months both my sons have walked away from being in cars that turned over and came to rest in ditches upside down. That's how my fathers day started with a call from the county sherriff telling us my pickup my son was driving the night before was in a ditch a mile and a half from home ,not known if anyone was in it. I freaked , then my wife went down stairs to ask his brother if he'd seen him and he was home ,he'd gotten out and walked home. That ditch would have swallowed his car but my 4 dr long bed F 250 bridged across enough to save him, it's totaled but the best gift I got was him getting out in one piece.
