What's your thoughts on this? Saw this on the news A husband pitches a tent on his roof to protests his wife letting children in the bedroom when it's suppose to be thier time complaining she pushes him aside for the children.
She says we had them they do come first

Drastic situations require drastic measures. Mr. Sheena is hoping dramitic roof display will help him get his way. IMO, the kids will be fine, they need to know when to leave Ma n' Pa alone, otherwise you'll never have peace.

LOL^ I saw this on the news my bedroom was off limits to my kid unless she was deathly sick

I didn't realize I had made the news! ;)

Honestly, I feel the guy's pain. I don't think my situations as serious as his, but sometimes mommy can be a little over sensitive to junior's needs while ignoring mine. While little children do need their parents, they do need to learn how to deal with some things on their own. As I have to remind my wife from time to time, we're training him to leave and we want to make sure we still have a good relationship once he goes to college.

^ I hear you Rabban. At 32 it's time your son goes to school and get out of the parents' bedroom! ^{why did you let him try TT} XD

@ Rab

At least you get your needs ingored. I don't even get that. XD The boy rules.

Sigh... This sounds familiar to me. I think my sister's divorce may have been around these issues.

I'd like to see couples come to the point of realizing that the best thing you can do for their kids is keep a great relationship between the mother and father. Kids with parents who put their relationship as a top priority get a great gift, and a great model to follow later on (when they become parents).

I know it's tough sometimes, but the husband/wife thing needs to take priority. Help the little ones, get them settled back in their own bed, and life can go on.

Your 100% right^ if more parents spent time together the children would beneifit from it. If the children see happieness from the parents the children grow up happy and healthy :)

^ and we're doing that. There are just times when I get the boot in favor of junior and it makes me pouty. :(

Can't write anything with a PG rating in this thread................ ARRRRGGGGGHHHHHH!!!!!!!

@Rabban- we are doing that too, but what you said ^^ seems oddly familiar... :(

I think the key is for it to be the exception, not the rule. Mr. Strike sounds like it's everyday...
