Me too.

Stuff like this is so hard for me to talk about that I read everything everyone writes, then write something, then delete it, then write something again, then delete it, then give up. I must have had over a dozen replies to you all that never hit the Post button.

I actually avoid these father topics that come occassionally because I don't have anything to share. I enjoy reading about all of your fathers, but sadly my brother and I are broken men from our father's abuse and betrayal.

Reading your posts have showed me that you are a wonderful father. People so often repeat the same mistakes that they grew up with. I am happy that you were able to broke the cycle. it could not have been easy.

Some things in life don't get fixed, and nobody with a fancy psychology degree helps these things either. In life you absorb the blows, take the pain, and protect your loved ones from the pain you know.

But like I said, I enjoy the tales all of you share about your fathers.

I am not suggesting you let a beast anywhere near your children. I support your position.

I meant that I am better because of my dad. I wish you had that kind of experience too.

I also meant that I can see you are not your father when it comes to dealing with your wife and kids. I applaud you for breaking the mold. It is a hard think to do. Even when youngsters vow they will not make the same mistakes their parents made, all too often, they fall into the same trap. You are a superior man.
