The easy life exists here too. You just have to live outside the beltway.

I'm with you - and any other ambush (proposal, birthday, etc.) that is done for newspaper/tv/youtube/instagram. For me life is not a spectator sport.

But people are different and I can see that probably millions of people think that doing something like that is the "most romantic/touching thing ever".
I'm not one of them and I count my blessings that people in my life are neither.

Or anything else by choice, for that matter.

"Can you honestly not see that a child needs their mother? fathers, teachers, daycare workers(well not in my house, in yours maybe) all have their place, but no one can beat mom."

Wow. What about 2 dad families? or single dads? You have a very limited view.

You must be the troll who keeps insulting SAHMs, trying your hardest to get a rise out of them. Don't you have work to do?


No one in this thread is trolling except the lady who insists fathers can't comfort their children.
