wow that looks just like my kids after they have spent the day with auntie mustang sally eating pizza ice cream candy drinking soda playing video games and watching movies

i did not know this general, but i can see how much he has impacted all of you. this is indeed a tragic loss i am deeply saddened by this and wish you all peace in your hearts.

I am saying there is man who posts on cc.com who uses the avatre dirty sanchez who i think is handsome and witty. Makes me wonder what you think of Choada_boy I have never chatted with him. I couldn't say.

my and my boys last summer. they are way bigger now

I agree, but cannot afford for one of us to not work. I agree to a point. But there is one child to take care of, and not a whole bunch of diseases going around. A nanny was the best option we had. again, just my opinion, but that is a cop out. you can afford anything you want to afford if you make the proper adjustments to your budget. we each live with the consequences of the choices we make. I think that this is one of those times when you need to adjust your thinking to how you live. you like day care, you just don't want your child to go to a center where there are other children diseases etc. Muff….I hear what you are saying and believe me that conversation has taken place in my home. But it comes down to what is best for my son. We could sell our house and go live in a crappy apartment with other screaming kids and parents who beat their kids…..we could live on my salary like that. But is that best for my son. We don’t think so. We bought our current resident because we got pregnant and needed a yard for him to grow in. So if we want him have a very safe place to grow/play/worry free for the parents. Then we both have to work. Once we made that decision then it was nanny or daycare…..we choose nanny. Trust me my house rules and I do think it is the best place to raise children. So……off to work I go. I am not trying to tell you that what you have chosen is wrong. I am trying to convince you that you need to adjust your verbiage to the reality of your existence. I live in a crappy part of a REALLY nice neighborhood so my kids can go to the really great school. we all make choices and we all do the very best we can. there is no perfect when it comes to parenting. I will say, at least those of us with kids are doing parenting, are thinking about all of these topics. at least we give a shit.

i said i am bitter what more do you want my point is that you should NOT be bitter... i am working on that i am a work in progress blooming like a little flower

This is pretty close to the plan my wife and I have... we'll pop out one more kid and then wait two years. After that, I get to retire for five years while she goes back to work. I make way more money than she does, but we're saving up in the meantime to cover the difference. I can't wait. now THAT is cool!!!

to me thats like paying someone to clean my house. even if i could afford it i don't think i could have done that when my kids were little. i do have a yard guy though. i hate yard work HATE!! she doesn't clean... anyway, this is the decision you two made, that one would work outside the home and one would work inside the home, so why bitch about it???? And why expect the one working outside the home to work as hard inside the home as the stay-at-home???? can't have your cake and eat it too... Our nanny drives 18 miles one way to my house Monday – Friday, pretty much just watches my son and tries her hardest to have a meal ready when we get home and tries to do laundry, but in the end, we just want her to watch our son. With my wife owning her won business and me working 40 a week, and we both HATE daycare….a nanny is the only way…..she rocks and is worth every penny. personally i don't think any child under the age of 3 belongs anywhere away from a parent. i don't care what you call it. a nanny is still day care.

i said i am bitter what more do you want

then you should. I am serious. I think it would benifit any man who has the desire to quit his job for 2 years and be home with his children while his wife gets her career back on track. for reals if a mom did the first 3 years and daddy did the next 2 kiddo would be 5 by the time everyone was back at work.

And why expect the one working outside the home to work as hard inside the home as the stay-at-home???? can't have your cake and eat it too... huh? all i said is that i thought it was easier to come to work every day than it was to be a stay at home mom. no bitching here. i am greatfull i had the opportunity to hold my babies and watch them learn so many amazing things and spend so much time with them whilst they were forming. it was hard but it was worth it!!

same thing sugar bear

I know... megablocks, trampolines, zip-lines, legos, building snowmen and igloos, throwing rocks in the lake, jumping off dirt piles - now that I have kids I can act like the kid I still am, without anybody thinking I'm weird! i didn't have parents so i was never a kid. I don't get it.

well at least you are honest.

how is this so? i have yet to meet a man who can breast feed a child and if he can, thank god there is finaly a way to share the buren. i have been called home from trips, from the dr's office, because there was something up with the kids. thier needs always come before mine. when i was married my husband worked all the time and hwen he wasn't at work he was doing his own thing. he hung out with the kids on occasion, but that never once meant i stoped thinking abou the boys or worrying about them, i was and am always on call. Muffy, i gotta call bullshit on this one...I do a tot of the cooking/kitchen shit, watching the kids on the weekends, getting up at night with a sick kid/feeding kid/nightmare-having kid. Then throw in the sports work for different teams/practices etc. My wife on the other hand, runs the finances, works her ass off etc. etc. ...and your comment about "breast feeding" does not apply to all children... Sounds to me like you enabled your prior husband to "get away" from a lot of his home responsibilities...you were as much responsible for the way Jason behaved as he was...you could've easily insisted that he pull more of his domestic responsiblities than he did....fair is fair, and this ain't the 1950's i do not even want to hear from you on this topic. you have a nanny and you are right. i did enable.

I wonder if muffy arches her back during sex? wouldn't you like to know you naughty boy

do you know him too? cool guy. good climber and rides a harely too. i have a little crush on him. SSSHHHHHHHHH Well, I don't know him personally.... he posts here

i disagree. there is a performance review and fireing is divorce.and the real consequence to fucking up as a mom is you rais a psycopath. that is a lot of resposablity. I am not really sure how running a company is more dificult than running a family. they require different skill sets for sure. i think that when a ceo fails people lose money. when a mom fails we lose a life. and yes i was a stay at home mom for 8 years going to work every day is so much easier. people tell me when i do a good job. they give me money, i can call in sick, and i can just take a day off because i feel like it. i am really good at leaving my office work at the office, i am a mommy all the time, even when the boys are with their dad. i never know when i am going to get the call tha someone fell off the monkey bars and broke something. and just think how hard it is to get those kids to pass their spelling tests!!!! I KNOW

do you know him too? cool guy. good climber and rides a harely too. i have a little crush on him. SSSHHHHHHHHH

i think this is the best point. i don't think a person should ever become a mom becuase she thinks she is going to get thanked or apriciated or get any kind of compensation. you become a mom to give not to get. it is a disgracful display to see these women wanting to be THANKED or appriicated for soemthing THEY CHOSE TO DO. so writing an article about "how much a mom is worth" is total bullshit. and that is why so many kids run wild and are heathans. thier parents want to be appriciated so they will give thier children anything so they can feel good about thier child being "happy" /rant

hey i am nice when i ask and i bring cookies

me too
