Bad Dad Days

Some dad days are harder than others. On those, there is no credit to be had. And today is one of those days.

There is a gentleman writing that fathers aren't manning up in taking care of their children and then cites studies to show the results. It seems, somehow, fathers not participating enough in their sons lives are responsible for everything from more boys than girls being emotionally disturbed (try telling that to a father solely of girls) to dyslexia.

As if fathering boys wasn't enough to get you dissed, "arts & culture" headlines include singer Rihanna trumpeting the crack habit of her dad as the background for her teenage years. Even Jamie Spears, the father who got daughter Britney a bit of space for her lifetrainwreck, is looking ridiculous, at least according to the gossipmongers sharing his ban on sex for his 27-year-old daughter — as if that could possibly work at any age, much less for a multi-married, insanely wealthy party girl. That's Michael Lohan insanity, that's what that is.

There are just days and nights when a man can't help but be surprised. Better luck tomorrow.
