    Because obviously, fathers are irrelevant.

    Because women ultimately (and whether they accept or realize that responsibility or not) decide who becomes a child's father, yes, mothers have more say here.

    I blame Canadian Bacon.

    Fat, non-judgemental, and grammatically incorrect, it seems.

    Pretty sure it takes more than a sperm donation to become a father. Just as it takes more than an egg donation to become a mother.
    any idiot can make a baby.

    Don't you guys control who you have sex with too though? I mean, it's not like you're forced to do it. So, seems to me it's a dual decision. Unless, well the alternative would be illegal.

    It's not a choice, I'm sacrificing for the benefit of humanity, because I'm such a wonderful caring person....or lazy, whatever.

    My children are a pleasure to have in class. I have the report cards that prove it. It's because they were raised on a diet of fast food and sugar.

    I think he's saying men are just powerless when offered the V.

    Or you know, women can opt to terminate pregnancies, while men don't really have the option. They can vanish into the night and never be heard from again, but they have still reproduced and have to spend the rest of their lives hiding from the man if they don't want to pay.

    Please PM me your phone number, the producers of Maury have been trying to contact you for several weeks.

    It's down you or Ennui_Miller or Derpes. Several others have already been crossed off the list.

    Can't be me! I finished just before we started! All 3 times! Remember?

    Nice kids are often the ones that aren't hangry.

    Or you know, not forced to eat brussel sprouts.

    I'm to lazy to raise my children. I let the TV and school do that for me.

    OK John, I have decided, you will be my baby's Daddy. :laugh:

    Well, junior is growing a fu manchu at 3, so, I dunno, you seem like a reasonable suspect to me.

    My experience with children leads me to believe that you are incorrect.

    If dad is fat and mom judges the food choices of others, what do you end up with then?

    Hmmm...That does sound like me. Is he also mysterious and inscrutable?

    A hole in the space time continuum?


    Or, you know, something considerably less fun than that.

    People are too damned nosy these days. Used to be folks would mind their own business but now they want to help the nanny state tell you how to raise your kids to be entitled little brats.

    My children are neither jerks nor fat. They are perfect angels. Thank you very much.

    Only if it was blended with coca cola and baby cow juice in to a liquified form so that it could be injected directly in to the little monster's gullet via beer bong, because you know, playing choo choo would take up too much of my "me" time.
