>This week I had to spend a night away from my family to travel for work. Someone I work with asked me about my baby and how she was doing, as he also told me about his seven month old son. When I asked him what his wife did, he replied,”She stays home with our baby. I don’t want someone else raising my kid.” Ouch.

>A great response is 'So your wife didn't trust you to raise your child.'Add to your arsenal there is nothing wrong with what you are doing.
>Ouch indeed! I hope that's what he said when he felt his foot kicking his own teeth.
