I Agree With That Too! Posted: 09-08-05 21:15pm
Usually when only a single parent is
invloved, they are able to take on both
roles out of necessity. Its not the best
situation, but then whats the alternative
for the good of the child?
I am sure if something were to happen to
me, my wife would be able to manage. But
hopefully I will be around to take care of
my kids.
Everyone has to remember that kids always
come first and you gotta do whatever is in
their best interest!
Now am I a good dad or what??? Lol

You should try and make things equal. My
fiance is very good with hayley, there are
still a few things he won't do such as
batth her (shes 1 year old) but most of
the time he does other things like feed
her, change her and if I need a break and
wanna go out for a few hours then he looks
after her (even if that means checking up
on him to see if hes fed her or whatever)
at the moment I am a sahm and I don't plan
on going back to work 'til hayleys in
school and my fiance is out of a job at
the moment (hopefully not for too long) so
he spends alot of time with hayley, even
when he goes back to work he still has
time with her even if that means he has to
schedule it. There are alot of fathers
that don't want to know their own children
so be as involved as possible even if
you're no longer with the mother. :)

Most of what the logical thinking folks
here has been well thought out and
presented perfectly!
I totally hate the fact that many fathers
will tell friends and family that they
cannot do this or that because they have
to "babysit" their kids, if the caps lock
would work on this site I would use it
now.... " you cannot babysit your
children, it is not possible for you to be
a sitter, you are the parent, and a total
fool for thinking you are sitting your
child"
ok, whew, I got that out. I am a disabled
worker that has to stay home with my son
until I finish college and it will be the
best years that I am with the baby and we
are trying as of september 2006 to get
preggers again, that will allow both of to
have the summer off to get the baby set up
for day care since my wife is a teacher
and I will be, (technology specialist) for
pasco county school board.
Dads step up tp the plate and look at your
children as your children not thier
mothers kids and your expense.

Amen! My hubby takes a very active role
in our son's life. Even though my
parents were married the whole time I was
growing up, my dad practically raised up.
He spent alot of quality time with us.
That is why we all have such a good
relationship. I wouldn't want to be with
a man that was just there to sit in his
lay-z-boy and "discipline" the children.
My hubby and I both (as a team, the way it
should be) raise our son. I can
guarentee our son won't be the one on the
sheriff's log in the newspaper....Lol!
