[QUOTE="InDaShop, post: 172677, member: 1295"] Dad's as a roll model or even to keep you on course. I'm lucky to have turned out half ass decent at all. My biological contributor was a POS, beat my mom, etc... My mom raised my sister and I, and remarried to the guy I call my dad. I love my dad, but he was never around when I was growing up. He was always on the road doing powerplant turbine overhauls all over the country. Then moved to Houston from Paola when I was a freshman in highschool. My parents seperated in '91, but are still married today but dont see of speak to each other and live 750 miles apart. But through it all both did the best they could to keep their emotion and fight hidden from my sister and I. He worked his ass off for us, I owe that and much more to him. Part of why I think I turned out ok, was the responsibility of farm. **** had to get done or animals died. And if anyone wants to know why I went to college, thank god I had the means, was strictly because I'd already felt like I'd worked my ass off, and didnt want to do that type of work the rest of my life. I've built more miles of fence than I care to ever count in Kansas and in Texas. So maybe the serious question for myself is do I think I can be a good rolemodel father for my son when I dont have the "Mike Brady" type father figure to pull references from??? This world is so full of **** ups and its getting harder and harder every day to find a job, keep a job, get into college, pay for college, earn a living, etc. As any real father knows you want to set your kid up with the best set of tools, and circumstances to succeed no matter if its go-kart racing or life.
