Defensive? Pot, you're looking black - love Kettle.


Not at all, I'm offensive, or even down right assaulting, but if you want to go that direction than it would be fair to say your "assessment of the thread" didn't take into account many of my posts, so therefore by your own silent omission, not truly an assessment at all.




Now I'm just being silly, I hope you can see that.

man, you're no fun. Damn donk fan.... :p you just killed the thread.

Right now, we pay roughly $450 every two weeks for two children.

The stupidity level just dropped a notch in here if you can believe that.

I thought as much. Take a seat.

That's pretty much the breakdown right there.

Guess you didn't read it all either.

Strange. What I've seen is the concensus is that if at all possible parents would like to be home and raise their children until they are of school age.
Not all, in fact most, parents can't pull this off due to financial realities.
There is a certain amount of guilt involved with parents who leave their kids in day care 8 hours a day 40 hours a week.
People without children have no business commenting on this subject.

Exactly. I don't care how much you think you know, until you have kids YOU DON'T KNOW. So until you do- just shut yer yapper because you're not authorized to give a relevant answer on the subject of parenting.

REPOST

Oh, I read the whole thing. I got the same feeling from what some of you have said. Because I have my children in daycare, my wife and I are wasting time with our kids, putting material possessions and money above them, and just not raising them properly.

Those of you with stay at home mom's, what happens when they are going to school for 8 hours a day? Is that wasting time with them? Should you home school?

To each their own I guess. My wife stayed home with each child for the first 3 months or so. From there, she works 8:30a-3p M-F. I'm the "coach" of all the teams. I take my oldest son golfing. I spend my evenings playing games and wrestling with all of them.

But, I guess I'm wasting time.

you're not wasting your time, get your head back up and buck up lil camper.....

you are not in that mold you are trying to put yourself into.

1) it's your life and your children, just do your best.
2) 8-3 isn't as bad as 8-6.
3) coach material makes up for the "distant" parent that never sees, holds, cuddles, reads to, plays with, interacts with thier kids. You don't fit this mold and don't put yourself there. You also shouldn't need me to tell you this..... :p

Get off this godamned message board and go hug your kids!!!
:p

I don't think you should have taken my comments in a manner that gave you that impression. I'm not saying that someone else didn't post similar sounding comments, but that's his opinion.

I can't for the life of me find where the overall feeling of this thread implied that people putting kids in daycare were total bastards that didn't love their kids.

I'm the bastard on this thread, I divorced my first bitch and now only see my boys a total of a couple months a year.

the american dream a wife to cheat on me and two kids to grow up and hate me....
