I would like to see some kind of association dedicated to finding fathers good part-time work so they have time for their families. Hi Alex,

All of your ideas on parenting are sure to be with me for life. I especially want to thank you for the idea of carving out time for each child, to make them feel special. I now remember that every time I got a chance to do something with either parent alone, without my brother present, I felt very important and loved. Although I do love my brother so very, very much, I know that as a child it was important to me to feel that I wasn't just one of the children. I will keep the idea in mind. Hopefully I will have my own children in the future, and if/when I do, I will remember to try and make them feel loved and special.
