Read all the books with my oldest son...even when I was deployed we would chat about what we liked about them...second sons into fire fighting, 3rd son fishing, 4th son academics and sports...gotta know how to blend in and interact with the indigenous population...even in ones own home. As for Mrs. OSFG...she gets control of the check book. And I show her my manly mr fix it skills.

Man,
F'ing chill just went up my spine. Read them all with my oldest, even saw the first 6 movies, and was reading to my daughter too, 5 years younger, a couple books behind.
Then came the divorce from wife #1,
and she turned them against me. ****.
Ryan is now 23, and a member of the FD that I just left.
BAH FUCKING HUMBUG!

TJC...that shit always back fires on them...just be a dad the best you can and eventually they come back to dad....
Don't play tit for tat with the wife using the kids...they will see that you didn't over time... I know I did with my parents. Sorry for how things are working in that regards... a parent that will spend quality time with their kids, is a good parent. teaching them or even just doing something in common....precious moments not easily forgotten.

If you can breathe, . . . thank God.
If you can read, . . . thank a teacher.
If you can read in English, . . . thank a veteran.

Just keep doing the hard part and don't lash out about it...let them see your trying....when the light clicks on...they will remember that...and then you have to forgive any slights they may have given you and move forward. They will recognize their mistakes when they get older. It takes kids a long time to realize parents are just as human as they are.
