[QUOTE="Tanis143, post: 3556818, member: 43724"] I feel this because I see families in their normal environment and I can see why teenage suicides are on the rise. Way to many parents use electronics to "parent" their kids. As long as the kids are being quiet all is good. I've seen young kids go up to parents in search of a hug only to be told to go back and play because mommy/daddy is busy. I've seen pre-teens/teens act out because that is the only way they get any attention. When I see this I get mad, upset and sad as I will never be a father. I will never get to experience that pure joy of holding a tiny life I helped create and watch that small life grow into a wonderful person. I did get to help raise my step-son, who I love as much as I can, and I'm proud of the way he turned out. But to see young kids in search of love turned away, I want to yell at these people to not throw that gift away. [/QUOTE]
