  • Parents Who Teach Hate — Child Sings 'Ain't No Homos Gonna Make It To Heaven'

    Updated: 2012-05-30 14:21:33

    Last week we began talking about the very sensitive subject of divorcing your children, or what it means to come to the conclusion that your involvement in your children’s life is doing them, and perhaps you, more harm than good.

    Updated: 2012-05-25 20:40:08
    Entitlement and narcissism are on the rise in our culture. Every now and again, you get to witness what happens when entitlement and a lack of smarts collide. And that’s what happened at the Alamo Drafthouse last summer when an angry customer left an indignant, expletive riddled and hilarious voicemail to complain about being kicked [...]

    What do men do when the marriage is over, but the ex-wife uses the kids as a permanent, go-to method for continuing her vindictive and vengeful behavior? For many men, there is no good way out.
