Tom has a quick look at some different ideas for dads and granddads about playing with their children and grandchildren. All too often men find themselves with very limited time with their children and finding ways to play with them can make the most of that limited time while being great fun for both father and child.
No kids here, but I thought this was good advice for anybody who might be around kids in somebody's home. I often see people who have their grandchilden for the afternoon, for example. When they introduce me to one of them I always kneel down so I can come close to their eye level. The advice about voice and demeanor is good too. Thanks for this. Good tips on stories, too.
Any interaction between a man and a child is dangerous. I've been approached by concerned parents simply because I decided to sit in the bleachers at the park to watch a little league baseball game. I was alone and no one knew me so--STRANGER DANGER!
I explained that I was just walking by and felt a little nostalgic for my own little league days but that didn't satisfy anyone. When I observed that the park was a public place and I didn't need their permission to be there I was asked for ID. At that point I thought 'fuck it' and just left.
