I feel like a freak.
After reading this article I'm afraid my experience is much different. My wife and I love being parents, and life with our 8 year old son and 6 year old daughter is peaceful and full of laughter most of the time.
It wasn't always this way for me. I grew up in a home that screamed a lot, and most of my family and relatives still live with too much manufactured drama and bad life choices. After I converted to Christianity at the age of 20, I spent the next decade "working out my salvation" before I met and married my wife. We're celebrating our 10th anniversary next week, and I can honestly say my life is fantastic.
I credit a lot of why I've managed to pull off what I have to this book http://amzn.to/9zILXE http://amzn.to/9zILXE
- steverb 16y agoMy wife and I are big fans of that book as well. We have also forced our older children (13, 11) to read the teen version. Useful advice whether you're a Christian or not.
- mcantor 16y agoOut of curiosity, why did you shorten that URL?
