I just wanted to post to keep an eye on this thread. And to say how much I admire the OP. I don't currently need any games (not that I don't want any, just that I have Rimworld, and I picked up Prison Architect and Banished during the Steam Summer Sale, and so I am content.)
In honor of the thread, I am going to spend a couple hours helping my son with his resume...something I haven't wanted anything to do with.
Thanks for all the contributors to such a cool thread.
Im a father and i lost my girl lately, she is not dead, just the child services going overboard with assumption, i have been fighting for 2 month now to see or talk to my girl, you have no idea how i miss her, i would gladly accept anything just to be with her doing anything. I miss her voice, her smile, i miss her, and i know very much how she miss me and it break my heart. Listen to a fellow b12er and please, enjoy your time with him as you never know when you could loose him.
*Hugs* Oh, I will. It isn't spending time with him that I didn't like, merely the thing that had to be done. Having a child with ADD calls for a good deal of patience, and sometimes it's not easy to be patient. Especially since he didn't want to do the resume, and neither did I. But it needed done and I needed to bring home the lesson that sometimes we all have to do unpleasant but necessary things.
I value my son, and enjoy spending time with him otherwise. At rock botom, he's a good kid. I feel good about that, even though sometimes I feel like I could have done so much better.
I feel for you in your circumstances and hope things work out well. I know it must be really tough for you.
