I'll just tell you guy this, there isnt a dull moment at my house; plenty of screaming to go around. Yes a beer and whiskey helps sooth the ruckus, and the funny poop they do. For what its worth, I ignore them all evenly and no preferential treatment. Their mommy is their emotional support, I'm just the guy they dread coming home when they have done something stupid. You know truthfully, its all the same after three kids. It just seems to work out that way.
note to GH: you know I'm all about some beer and BBQ!
