The Official TFK Father's Issues Thread. I don't know how they do it

That’s the third or fourth one today. What’s up mate? Just because I don’t respond doesn’t mean I don’t notice you crying out for my attention.

[QUOTE=“Mac, post: 1144376, member: 109”]I couldn’t claim credit for it at all. 3 of my mates all had kids within a few months of us and none of them sleep through the night properly. Its pot luck really.

Your last point is spot on too. Just because you have a child your life outside them shouldn’t end.[/QUOTE]

for fuck sake

FFS sake. I got lambasted by a load of fathers on this thread a while back for making the exact same point they’re now putting forward. Cunts. I’m seething.

[QUOTE=“mickee321, post: 1144373, member: 367”]that’s actually a great point and something that is very easy to slip into.
for example im abandoning my family on sunday at 11am to go to thurles, this is very important
cant find the time for football anymore tho, just cant keep up the training , im playing junior GGA football now for the summer and that’s a show up when u can type arrangement, all i can do now[/QUOTE]

its important to some lads to maintain some shred of their identity and not get totally immersed in just being a parent…thats not to say they don’t love their kids but not every person is fascinated by every little thing their child does…i have a mate who reckoned his baby was going to love football because he crawled after a sponge ball …I mean for love of Christ! …

I remember it well. Seethe away, fucko.

That obviously means your point was poorly presented.

That I’m doing, you little gimp.

I believe it was the same insult that got you into that mess.

All kids are different. Some sleep, some don’t. Some have trouble teething, some don’t.

[QUOTE=“scumpot, post: 1144361, member: 182”]or maybe it had more to do with the child ?..some parents would claim credit for anything their child does…

i’m fookin dreading when I have to bring the little one to birthday parties and I’ve to listen to parents boasting about every fookin thing because the sad fact is they never developed an interest past their child…[/QUOTE]

Wait until you have to hear it from a couple of pillow biters.

Which one of the gay partnership should get up in the middle of the night to mind the crying child? The giver or the receiver?

[QUOTE=“TreatyStones, post: 1144247, member: 1786”]My daughter called me Dada for the first time during the week. She also gives me a high five every time I come into the room.
They are great.[/QUOTE]

I enjoy my grandchildren. We have a little terror of 3 whom I’m coaching a new word to on a daily basis. Yesterdays word was apeshit.
He executed the sentence brilliantly I’m told when his father spilled something in the house this evening.
“Gah would go apeshit” he said as he scurried away. Kids are fucking magic, trust me. He’s on a bonus tomorrow for sure.:clap:

Mammy was on to “modify” Gah’s educational remit. What harm am I doing? He’ll be able to roll cigarettes by the time he’s 4.

Surprised to hear you need minding, mate. Which would you prefer?

One of mine was dragging on butts at the age of two.

Stage 4 Cydney?

“Cydney”. I’d say you’re a bit beyond stage 4 if that’s the best you have.

On hols. Due to yesterday being Father’s Day I was told to head off and enjoy the hurling…I did!. I also got West Africa involved and so I’m now enjoying a post hurling, Fathers Day, west Africa party listening to Rock The Casbah on the balcony.

Waterford Scruffs always said, when away and purchasing west Africa make sure to get a phone number saying you’ll want more, no number = shit… I’m happy to say I got the number…rock the casbah!!
