The only thing that keeps my son from being the best kid on earth is that his 16 year old sister keeps the voting from being a landslide win. :smiley:

How a father could possibly create a situation where his kid wants to kill him is beyond belief. My friends all think I am a great dad, but I know I am far from perfect, and yet my kids love me. Wow.
