    The other said what needed to be said. Do you talk to anyone the way you do? You do realize you’re talking to real people with real life experiences. And if you used any critical thought you’d understand the innocence of using the word “fricken” or “friggen” in my comment was to illustrate that in our child community growing up, we used the retard word along with that. And it was almost never used to call someone that, it was used to call a situation that. Like “that’s retarded let’s not do that”.

    And yeah I don’t use that word anymore as an adult.





  • Oh wow yeah that sounds like a hand full. Health becomes a problem for us. If one of us gets sick for a few days it gets pretty rough. We don’t have too much time to go out, and my wife and I haven’t really went on too many dates since our 3rd was born. But we’re both on the same page that it’s part of the season we’re in. I’m busy maybe 3 days a week and that already makes it rough, but I can’t imagine if my week was full of appointments.

    Don’t worry about being too clean for the kids. The first one is always going to be the learning curve, and we’ve been there with the ultra clean everything. Germs and chokeables. Now on our 3rd we’re a lot more lax, being more observant when it’s necessary. But you will drive yourself crazy picking every speck off the ground lol.

    But ultimately my wife and I are a team. And if there’s anything that becomes too hard for us it’s because we weren’t on the same page about it. Life moves forward. Children are the best thing that ever happened to us. And our hobbies didn’t disappear, we got new ones and old ones either aren’t interesting anymore or adapted to fit. You’ll never be 100% ready. If you and your partner want children, let that child grow with you.


  • I’m full time (40 hours) and my wife is a stay at home mom. She might work in the summer for delta airlines as a gate agent but that’s if the season allows for it. Either way that income is less than $5k for the year so it’s not for the money, but the flight benefits.

    The home being clean… Well we let a lot of things get surface dirty because cleaning after the kids is a full time job in and of itself. We’ll deep clean once a week, dishes are cleaned right away, toys after you’re done, beds, sheets, carpets and deep floor weekly. We got a system. My wife does an amazing job. I make sure our vacuums work lol.


  • Father of 3 kids under 6, I still play an hour or so a day, some weekends I get a night to play with friends.

    And I have time for work in commercial electrician. Come home to work on my garden, chickens, greenhouse, and hang with the kids and family.

    Going to be doing my own solar in the next week or two. Tonight going to a mtg mh3 event with a friend to play some magic.

    All weekend to chill with my children, wife, and enjoy some parks. Once kids are asleep I’ll watch a movie with my wife.

    Life is good. Time for everything.



  • Yes. This. What was considered clean and unclean to eat was amended in Peter’s vision in acts 10. So was clothing and much else of levitical law during jesus’ gospel.

    Even Paul’s writings about women speaking above men needs to take into context that the church in Ephesus (modern day turkey) was led by young Timothy. The theme was pretty strict to reestablish a baseline of roles and law to apply to Ephesus, which was seen as very immoral, murderous and rebellious. I mean Paul says people should stay celibate and not marry because this can complicate a person’s relationship with God.

    Without going too deep, no, this doesn’t mean women shouldn’t teach because “god” demands women to be inferior/subjugated.

    If that was so why did God use women as prophets and leaders?
