you have to keep them busy... take them fishing, help work on cars, take them swimming, etc. etc. etc. during those times you will have plenty of opportunity to teach them about life. they need plenty of talk time, plenty of dad time. it helps them grow up good.

I agree with this, big-time. I had my boys in swimming every night for 2 hours when they were younger and my daughter was in dance for 7 years. Let me tell you, not much room left for hyperactivity after that, but we sure spent a lot of money on food. :D I'm sooo into activities for kids. Also, I've got to say, whenever any of them got "thrashed" for doing wrong, there was never question in their minds about how much we loved them.
