Men: What is your dream for your family?

Family always comes first. At this point in my life @JLeslie, just try to support them and be there for them. Also, to spend as much time as possible with them. Especially, my lovely and wonderful grandchildren.

That is easy…I work my ass off to provide a roof over their head, food on the table, a good education and lots of musical instruments so we can jam all night long!

Family does indeed come first…I created them and owe that much to them…after 18, they owe me!!

that we are all fulfilled in whatever way we enjoy most. It would also be fun to have a family band—I guess we need the second keyboard, though. I hope we all enjoy each other. Also, I hope to have grandkids before I’m 80!

I need to work on the picket fence and the station wagon.

@Cruiser I love this! I want to spend nights jamming with my fam, whenever that time comes :)

Oops! I am not a man, hahahaha

@stardust It is the most amazing thing too! We have been banging out sounds for over 6 years now and just the last 3 years have been the best as the boys are really getting good and it is now really amazing jam sessions. I am so lucky!!

@Cruiser You are lucky, as are those boys :) and thanks!

I think I would make a great father considering how I helped raise my little brother, however if we are a culmination of our parents as a parent, I think I’d be horrid.

Do you all think more in terms of providing a roof over their heads than being there. Like if your work makes it difficult to attend some sports events they participate in, or a school play, are you fine that work “comes first” in those situations?

I’m a stay at home dad, so I’m there for my family as much as possible by being a mentor/role model/teacher/PARENT for my kids, keeping the place in some kind of “order,” if it can be called that getting food and supplies. I will get back to work soon when my littlest goes to school, and then it’ll be about providing monetarily during the day, while providing the same things as now in the evenings and on weekends.
