To 老猫 and others: maybe it's time for us to help our children to fulfill THEIR dreams?

loversandstrangers(情同陌路)

This morning while I was ironing (yes, I am a house man and I do all house work) my boys shirts, I got this idea.

Since we have done our jobs, no more dreams (what I feel is I myself lack of abilities to pursue my old dreams and I am ok with it now), since we still have extra engry and like new challenges, we can help others around us to pursue THEIR dreams.

Then when I had done my ironing, I went upstair to ask my elder boy who's going to high school next year: what do you want most now? He looked at me with a lost eye: I don't know.

So I've decided to devote all my time to help them (now I almost spend all my free time in maintain the house and I do almost everything myself), how do I start?

honest with you, it IS very scary if your dad suddenly crash into your room and ask you "what you want most" .... you just SCARED your son dude...... -win(秋天的菠菜); 2008-11-10 (#4830286@0)

especially when they are reading Play Boys. -coolmao(酷猫*Titan); 2008-11-10 (#4830321@0)

this is typical midlife crisis. done talking , you can just read some books for yourself. -buma(四眼鲁道夫); 2008-11-10 {75} (#4830297@0)
for your son, just remember one thing, good example is to lead not to push.

What books? A few days ago when I opened another insprational book, gee, I don't need these anymore. ４０而不惑，I am almost there. -loversandstrangers(情同陌路); 2008-11-10 (#4830378@0)

Do nothing. as long as you pursued your dreams and feel comfortable now, let the next generation do what they want to do. we don't have much say in their dreams anyway. -mikesmith(老猫); 2008-11-10 (#4831456@0)
