**All You Fathers Out There... ** (HELP ME)

[Knockout_Power]

Hey Tai, Im no father, but since mine was gone at such a young age, I had to raise 2 younger brothers while our mom was trying to work enough to keep 3 boys fed and a roof over our heads.

I'll start by saying, theres no one as selfish as a teenage boy so I know what you are saying about not knowing the best way to tackle this. I, however, at least had the advantage of raising 2 boys, so we could have a lot in common to work off of.

Raising a little girl (not sure the age) can probably be a little more difficult. Best thing I can say is try and find some common ground to work from. If she likes some kind of sport, play them with her. I know its not easy to enjoy doing some activity tha you probably have no interest in, but its the only way to bond.

DO NOT spoil her. Treating her well is ok, but you cant start problems with mommy by giving her everything that mom wont.
