Ty, stop talking as if children are a bit of a burden in the middle of great life plans - they might just be the most important thing you'll ever do.

 

Amen to that, never thought i'd be a dad but in the words of my boy "your my best buddy daddy" you cant buy that for any amount of money

Well, who'd of thunk it?

 

Had a call from school about 11.30. My eldest was not feeling too well and they asked me to pick him up. Luckily I wasn't at work today.

Quote from Homer Simpson, (To Apu if memory serves)

"Kids are great! With the internet and everything they pretty much raise themselves and you can teach 'em to hate the things you hate"

Have someones child cough and sneeze at you for 8 hours a day, get ill, not be able to go to work because you are ill, you then give it to your handsome husband who can't go to work cutting the trees of Normandy because despite being a son of the soil and never ill due to bad weather etc. you cannot fight off super bugs propagated in schools.

Being married to a Teacher you wish that more parents would keep their kids of school if flu-ish. Hats off to all the good parents that put their kids first!

OOOOOOO, Ain't I just the big bad kiddie hater here...

Where I see spoiled and mollycoddled and others see love and devotion.

Not sure its a good precedent to set for future generations.

If they get used to skiving off school for a 'sniffle' then what will they do as adults...?

Ty, you are in for the shock of your life when you have kids! youll look back on these posts and think 'what a moron',in the nicest possible way.

[Ty Korrigan]

Moron...that's a bit strong:confused1:

I am a carefull observer of parenting by others as like I said before, my wife wants 3.

One thing I WILL teach my kids to do will be to wash their hands often...

(Unlike the French...BLERK!)
