Most men are ashamed to discussed about children?

I open a topic that talked about what we are thankful for in life. I noticed that most of those who responded are women and thankful of their children with their beautiful smiles and laughters. I too noticed that not one men have responded. In my opinion, maybe men are afraid or ashamed to talked about their experienced with children or they hate to handle their children and leave it to their wives to rear. oh come on, you are missing something. what can you say ladies about this kind of men.

My hubby loves our children so much...but it seemingly doesn't show. The only way to dig onto his feelings deeper is to be his better half. In more than 2 decades of being together in one roof, I have known him to be the type of person who is few on words but great in action. He may not have enough words to say it, but I am confident that he will do everything for me and our children. Most men are like that, I suppose. :)

Hello aileen, nice to converse with you again, yes you said it right most men are like that, its nice to feel young again, i play with my kids if i have time, i pat and hugged them when necessary and i can see the happiness in their eyes,but this time they are learning to look at girls and it seems that im loosing them so if i have time i usually give them quality time. thanks for your response

Well... that's the way it is. To get rid of the bad feeling of probably losing them one day... Let's just think of it this way... for our boys... once they get to start looking at girls... we shall have potential daughters too. Especially I, who doesn't have a daughter... those will surely be lots of blessings for me!!! :) For the girls.. well.. let's guard them tighter... hehehe. It so happened that girls are ought to be heavily guarded ever since :)

I don't think that's true, I just think that men don't have the maternal instinct. I am a man and I love kids of all ages. I work with them at church and have always wanted to be a father so I can play with them, take care of them, and teach them how to make this world a better place when I'm gone. Also, I don't think that there are many men who are interested in posting on these topics because it's a bit more feminine.

I noticed that you are a new comer to mylot, welcome my friend and thank you for your reply. Maybe it is true ,when the topic is a bit feminine, the men feel it awkward responding. I dont get it, you said you are aman, therefore you can always be a father...
