My loving wife and I were having a discussion about the thing we do for our kids tonight, when she turned to me asked, “:What are we going to do when these kids are grown and gone?”

I recently wrote a story about how the iPad was created to keep parents sane. it caused quite the crap-storm with some readers, but parents who read it, agreed with me wholeheartedly. It covered a variety of ways for parents to keep kids corralled in sticky situations. This post, however, is not the same, but [...]

Sure, I’ll be 76 years old when I can unlock it, but that’s what we do for our kids, right??  

My kids are hung up on Club Penguin. They love it. It’s interactive. There are games to play. There are other people to interact with (to a certain extent). My oldest is the one that plays it the most and she’s seven. My youngest, of course, wants to do what her big sister is doing. [...]

For the longest time, my three year old has had an anti-potty stance as if she was a member of a union and Jimmy Hoffa was the president. Plain and simple, she was all set with going on the potty. All. Set. My wife and I tried just about every trick in the book. Sticker [...]

This is undoubtedly going to be part one of my reviews of EA Sports’s NCAA 11 Football for the XBox. I got the game on Friday night for my birthday and have had about 6 hours played on it thus far (hey, busy dads have things to do!) and will continue to build on this [...]
