disability like you when they grow up therefore you'd better educate yourself that's my favorite saying. i've seen any number of parents devoting so much time and effort to raising their children in reality though the children simply mimic their parents is that. if a child communicates with gentle people who are themselves outstanding individuals and the child will be like them. that they can use a great secret that i'd like to disclose to all fathers is this teaching children is a very interesting thing but which are especially if you achieve some results like if the child learns to read or write or imitate something that you do. as the bank you are to almost but it's over a year or it's like organizing a business or getting a promotion or something like that it's really fascinating to realize that you can foster something and show that. your version. of. i find it very important to make sure that kids have
8:56 pm
a grodd view of the world is the bible you should be afraid of reaching out to other people with different languages or in other countries. it's my little son is trying to climb up a hill knowing full well he'd never make it and yet he keeps trying and reaches the top this is like going to paris it's like seeing the world from in a different light. whether men should allow a woman to live with the kids simply because they need a mother by their side is debatable in my opinion. the man woman relationship is built on other for september we're going to put it plainly supposing i allow that woman to be with her kids they will grow up and go their separate ways but i'll have to stay on with that woman the two i need that lost both very many children have grown up without the care of fathers and mothers but they're none the worse for that or. if you.

8:58 pm
sometimes at night. i wake up and i start to cry because i remember you. well you need to ask your father to call me and have him bring you over to me. and a mom didn't want my children to share a home with another man and call him father. were most that's one of the reasons. at first it really became me to know that they were going to be not with me but with him. but now not so much. who are the kids are better off with a man than with me it's really important that a man raises boys. when are you going to come to us again. to visit or to live with us to live. well i don't know about
8:59 pm
that. it's not up to muster to sites we'll find out later we'll decide that it's not all of the research do you really want me to leave my husband and child and return to you. and. do more of that i see no reason for that. you.
