How many of yall had a fucked up childhood and how do you think that effected the person you are today. Do you think your up bringing made you a better parent to your kids or fucked up your life.
I was thinking about this because I have my kids just about every weekend and also during the week. I don't drink at all during the week but I tend to make up for it on Friday and Saterday night. I wish I can just have my kids during the week so they wont be exposed to seeing me drinking on the weekends. We do go out and have fun me the kids and my brother and friends. We do some fun shit almost every weekend like Peer 39, Movies, Beach, Bowling etc... I wonder if them being exposed to me and my friends drinking around them is negativley effecting them. They have fun but I wonder if its subliminaly fucking them up some how. We don't get out of line with em its just that since I have them on my "party time" during the week I'm worried they are going to get the impression that's all I do.
I had a fucked up childhood, my mother and her boyfriends exposed me to a lot of shit when I was a kid. My mother was a heroin addict and her boyfriends growing up were dope dealers. My parents were always in and out of jail and our house use to get raided etc... I use to see my mom shooting dope or my other family members doing hella drugs all the time and I know it fucked me up for a while. I was going down the wrong path because of all the shit I was exposed to but thankfully I met my BM and became a father etc...
I don't want my kids to be negativly effected by what I expose them too, I keep them far away from the shit I've seen but still I'm worried them seeing me, my brother, friends always partying/drinking when they see us could be a bad influence. The problem is that's the only time I get to do it cuz its my weekends. If I had them during the week more they would see a different dad more often.
