Spare the Rod and Spoil the Child?! #DadChat Post Script by @Faryna
Are parents spoiling their kids? Are you? Am I?
That’s what Bruce Sallan (@BruceSallan on Twitter) is asking. He asks himself in last week’s weekly column, Entitled. Last Thursday, Bruce and co-hosts Charlie (@HowToBeADad) AND Andy (@betadad) asked the big questions at #Dadchat.
Is GLEE Gay
There’s no doubt that I’m really wading into it with the title of this column. I was reflecting on the end of this season of Glee and the only other television series that I watch regularly, Modern Family. I enjoy both show but do wonder if they have an agenda as to the message they want to put across.
Social Media Rants and Ramblings #1 aka #Vegan #Friends and #Money
I’ve begun to make my weekend posts about Social Media. It just happened. Why? Because I’m living Social Media and my work revolves around it as well. And, I love it.

Homage – I’m NOT That Dad #14
What a pleasant surprise to receive this short video tribute aka homage, shot and edited by my son’s good friend, Jon. Yeah, I bribed him with Bruce Springsteen tickets, but he still came through and I was quite touched. That is why he chose “The Boss” description you’ll see within it -truly no other reason.
Have WE Spoiled Our Kids at #DadChat
We had another intense #DadChat – too many tweets to follow! Thank G*d for @hashtracking and their transcript!
I just wrote a column – Entitled – that certainly address this question of entitlement. Implicit is the issue of our kids being spoiled. And, us too for that matter! Are we spoiled? Are we spoiling our kids? That is our topic this Thursday, May 10 from 6:00 – 7:00 p.m. PST, with co-hosts Charlie aka @HowToBeADad and Andy aka @BetaDad.
Entitled
Where and when did it seem that everyone felt entitled? Entitled to an education, happiness, college, a home, every new tech toy, and a new car now and then, etc. I know the answer, as it was an evolution and change in attitude that began in the sixties, in my opinion. Some might say it began with Lyndon Johnson and his “Great Society” and that may also have been a starting point. But, the sad fact is that Americans have a higher quality of life than any generation, anywhere, any time, in world history.
