That's still better than my ex bro in law. He refused to get a job to support my sister and their daughter. At home he refused to do any house work or take care of the daughter. He essentially expected my sister to work a job, support their daughter, AND support him as if she was his mommy.

Glad he's an Ex.

I hate guys like that, What the hell.

This is long. Put on your study spectacles, people. Here goes...

It would still seem that most men adhear to an old custom made popular by the media during the second quarter of the twentieth centery. In that time, men made the money and women kept the house. Those days are gone and today, both parents have to work to pay the bills, leaving no time for that we call home, leaving latch key kids at home to play video games while they struggle to find quality time.

Then there are some long held taboos among men concerning women. If a woman cries, you find a way to make her stop. If she gets sck, you run away holding your nose. If she wants something, you see if you can fit it into your schedule and budget. If the kids need something, you have them talk to mama. If mama says its OK, you once again refer to your needs first, since you are the man of the house, the master of all you survey within your tiny fenched in kingdom.

Meanwhile, back at the ranch, the place is full of strangers that hardly know eachother enough to communicate with any sense or sobriety. If the parents are not drinking and screwing around, the kids are drugging out with shadey company just for the thrill of it. On Sundays at church, the parents are lulling themselves into thinking a good job that can dissappear any day is actually filling them with a false sense of securityso they can go into debt and live beyond their means.

Then they wake up. A kid goes to jail. Mommy gets ill. Daddy gets laid off. Disaster strikes. The parents separate. The kids are torn between worlds. And then they grow up to repeat the process.

Now, don't get me wrong. I know there are still good folks alive today. Men who will put the needs of all the members of their household above their own. Women who will support their husbands and help them achive their dreams. Parents who know and are patient enough to teach their kids right from wrong and make it stick.

But in today's world, these good folks are the exception, not the norm. And it would also seem that the majority of the good folks left are hanging out in art communities like this one, hoping their work will indeed make a difference and turn this planet and her people to the good, steering them from going to the bad.

Thanks to all who read my loquatious dietrebe. Blessings and good karma be yours. Live long, and prosper.

Don't forget the other part - the parents grow apart because there's no time for "romance", the wife loses interest in horizontal mamboing because there's no point in it, and shit hits the fan in a way never seen before.

Pete takes really good care of us though - I know he works hard and puts up with a lot of crap, and I try to keep the house clean and food ready when he gets home, but I feel like a drudge. There's no romance in our lives because we're too effing tired at the end of the day, and it's hard to be romantic when Walter's screaming at the top of his lungs.

We TRY to be good parents, but when you're bombarded with all the media crap of Donna Reed/Leave it to Beaver, you feel inadequate, really, you do.

I no longer have the dream that I can change the planet and her people, we are SCREWED. I try to change only my little portion and hopefully, people will see and follow suit.
