[QUOTE="patooyee, post: 172645, member: 483"] Virtually all these stories from people thinking they are bad fathers will ultimately be stories that you will laugh your ass off at when you are older. Your son will not think you are a bad father ultimately. I remember one time my family and I were on vacation in the Black Hills and we played the game where each kid got a quarter for every live animal he spotted and called out while in the car. We knew mountain goats roamed the hills but also knew they were hard to spot. Well I saw this beautiful perfectly white majestic ram sitting up high on this rock that overlooked the highway we were on. He had huge, curling horns and this massive chest beard and he was just sitting there on his ass looking down on life. He was the fricking perfect image of the most perfect mountain ram you could imagine. I can't even find a pic on the net right now of such a perfect ram. I called him out and my whole family thought I was lying because they didn't see him. We even went back to check again but he was gone. My brother called me a liar, mom and dad went into diatribes about how it isn't right to tell lies, etc. But the next day we went back by that spot and traffic was at a stand still. People were out of their cars taking photos of this perfect ****ing ram that was sitting up there just looking down at them. Sitting on that rock was the perfect Dodge commercial. Everybody apologized to me and I got a whole buck for that sighting! We look back and laugh now but at the time mom and dad sure felt bad about calling me a liar. My dad was all about hard love. My brother and I hated him at times and as a result we were a bit closer to mom. I look back now though and realize how difficult it was for him to discipline us when we were screaming how much we hated him. He did the RIGHT THING, not the EASY THING. Mom tells us stories now about how he would cry behind closed doors at having to spank us, or because his feelings were hurt so bad at the things we would scream at him when we were mad about being disciplined. We never saw that **** though. I look back now and think what a brave man he was, how he took our **** and kept plugging away at work to provide for us. I can tell you right now, I will never be the father he was. I just hope I can be half of what he was and it is because of the things that we hated back then that I think that now. We're expecting our first daughter in Sept. J. J. [/QUOTE]
