Fellow ATOT parents

There's nothing like your 14 year old son who is as big as you already getting his kicks out of tackling you in the living room, hallway, etc. or picking you up to show how stong he is. I am 5'10", 185lbs. so it's not like he's some little guy I can brush off. He thinks it's hilarious but I find it annoying. Also my 10 year old son has boundless energy and some days is practically literally bouncing off the walls.

There are times I just want to leave for a few hours when they are driving me crazy but I wouldn't trade these days for anything in the world. Before I know it they will be gone and starting their own lives...

yeah, that is starting to sink in. my eldest daughter is only 12 , but that means she'll be starting college in 6 years, 6 years isn't that long of time anymore

I think about it all the time. All you can do is give them the best childhood possible and spend a lot of time with them.

Lol, I think I need to hunt down & sig-ify one of your comments about headphone amps costing $50,000 and requiring a car battery

call his bluff. attach a bungee cord and throw him off the bridge. that will put him back in his place.

beat that ass.

not to self:

when raw dogging it, keep the swimmers in the pool and use a condom on your tool.

This is why I have a dog... You feed him, you give him water, you take him for walks, you play with him, and that's pretty much about it.
