Things you hate.

[Dinner]

Step kids who do not want to sleep in their own bed. Usually they want to get right in between my wife and I, yet worse the kid wants to lay on his back sort of sideways and spread out like a starfish. The dog it bad enough though I can usually knee, kick, or other was budge the dog so that he goes to his own lower part of the bed. It is harder to do that with a kid.

I have a California King so there should be enough room for wife, me, the dog, and even an occasional step son yet this is killing me.

[SlowwHand]

Bad habit to let them develop.
I hate tornadoe and bullies. Don't care much for snakes, either.

[Jon Miller]

He is feeling insecure because of the recent life changes. It will change.

The kid or Dinner?

[Bereta_Eder]

Oh ****.
You went and married a woman with kids.

[Bereta_Eder]

I can't be honest because they will ban me but I don't think you're a good enough and virtuous enough and compassionate enough man for that.
So...
Still, you're dinner, we known ourselves virtually a long time, I wish you the best.
However, you only do something like that if you really love the woman and if you do, you automatically love her kid(s) as well...
So act accordingly

[Bereta_Eder]

BTW I'm too egotistical and competitive to do something like you did I'm not preaching holier (or whatever) than you

[Bereta_Eder]

Also I will topple this thread bottom up to
things you love:

Things I love is:

knowing my political orientation. It gives me a sense of well being that I might have lost from other things.
Knowing that you really like ylounger women than you.
I'm closing on forty I love girls 10 years younger than me.

Yes. With girls of the same age I feel we connect more.


But the kick inside I get from girls in their thirties is unmistakable,

[Bereta_Eder]

And vice versa especially from a married girl that seems intent on having me.
I won't though. I have principles

[Bereta_Eder]

Thing is I'm cosmopolitan. I grew up abroad. And thsi girl just grew up in a village, opposite an island. And if she wasn't married I'd close capture her in a milisecond. She doesn't have an issue eitherway
I hope psychologists and biological evolutionaries in the university of crete come up with studies epxlaining that

[Aeson]

Must be something to put up with that. Congrats Oerdin!

[Dinner]

We got him to sleep in his own bed last night.

[Dr Strangelove]

You have the American Medical Society on your side. Co-sleeping is considered very bad. It can be lethal...…… or incest, I forget.

[Uncle Sparky]

Oerdin didn't mention his wife's son is 17...

[Jon Miller]

I thought that the AMS position was primarily due to US cultural factors?

(and so probably obesity and drug related)

[pchang]

Co-sleeping is bad for small babies. Easy to accidentally smother during sleep. Older than that is cultural factors.

..... and incest.
