I agree with...Hey Tweesdad, thanks for the comment. I agree with your view of things. Instead of making placing the boy under physical duress, doing something fun and active together. There's a lot of dad-son games and sports they could play in order to get his boy stronger as he claims. This, to me, just seemed a bit extreme.<br /><br />D.L.

And he's visiting on his son what was done to him in his early years.<br /><br />By contrast a good dad would strengthen his son's will by leading by example, e.g. if they both did a quick "polar bear run" out into the snow in their undies, before dashing back in for some hot chocolate and hugs.prbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02289344293828506001noreply@blogger.com
