Who cares if little Johnny is starving for male approval, not allowed to exercise, gets smacked around by his single mother in public for doing boy things, or if he is dosed up on Ritalin all day to make him act more like a good little girl. What really matters is whether his estranged father has the medical insurance paid up so his mother doesn’t have to spend her hard earned child support check on drugging little Johnny’s problems away.

While your story was in part difficult to read, I am grateful for men, (and women), like you who love, teach, respect and cherish their children.

I am very happy for your son that he has you and very happy that you have him too.

When he first arrived, he was filled with physical energy. So much that is boiled over into his conversation that he blurts words out.

Since we have been playing outside each day, he is in better control of his behavior and speech.

I wonder why son’s elementary school eliminated physical activates in the curriculum. I sense that physical activity may benefit boys more than ADD drugs.

I am at a woman’s house for dinner.

She has three children each by a different man.

She is a “single mom,” of course.

The oldest child is a boy of about 12.

He comes up to me and starts telling me that he can do X pullups (I can’t remember the number — but an impressive number whatever it was).

I tell him that is very impressive and start talking about how many pullups I could do years ago when I was in Airborne training in the army.

The mother literally screams at him. “All you talk about is exercising — go to your room!!!! Let the adults speak. I am sick of hearing about exercising.”

He dutifully leaves the room looking like a beat puppy.

That young man was starving for approval. He was also starving for attention for a male figure. I had known him for just a few minutes but I was it.

I felt so sad, but when I saw the way she treated him, I knew I would never be arround her or her boy again. I liked him much better than her.

My wife and I have taught our childern how to act in public, a lesson I learned from my mom. Act out in the store and we just leave. I did it once as a child, and learned fast that if I wanted to be with them I had to behave.

I expect each of us, I’m on top of the list, until death are tempted to lie, be unkind or impatient, stingy, or undependable.

Parents have authority to confront their child (privately without embarrassment).

A child with excellent character honors their father and mother.

None of this “because I said so” BS..

some people are really really lucky… some arent… i am glad that some are lucky!! and i would rather have it that way, than everyone not be lucky.

One things for sure, you’ll never see any stories about this on any of our corrupt (misandrist) main stream media, news outlets.
