I agree, everything is out of wack....I watch hockey, that's it, and the playoffs only if my team is in. I agree too, that dads need to be a major part of their kids life, especially when they're young. That's when they get their blueprint for how they will look at life. When they're teenagers, it's almost too late to start.....Yes, do as much as you can with your kids, with your hands, be it playing, cooking, gardening, making things in your shop, mountain biking, snowboarding, playing board games, doing puzzles, playing crib, etc.

Talking about anything, especially about tv show's/movies they see. Morals, values, spirituality.....all these things are lacking in most families now a days. Don't indoctrinate, educate. Encourage curiousity, and experimenting....oops....blah blah blah...... me bad.
