Doing includes not doing. There's some things dads don't do. Dads don't hurt children. Dads help children.

I was up for jury duty in Santa Barbara last year and the case involved domestic violence. The question from the attorney screening potential jurors, "When is violence toward a spouse justifiable?" How about never! "Pick me! Ask me! NEVER!" Not ever. He figured it out, his client had beat up his wife, and he was looking for someone other than me.

What say ye? I say 'Men' get angry, dads don't. Dads are better than that.

I say dads do not get angry at their children or the mother, because if they do they know they can't. Dads don't do anger, they figure out something else, because they know it's them, or the situation, but certainly not the child.

A dad who gets angry at a child knows its the dad, not the child. Otherwise that dad's not a dad, he's just a 'man.'

Because really, if violence is your last resort, then what are you doing in that resort? Go somewhere else. Get a new travel agent!

Dads don't do violence. They don't hit, strike, spank, threaten, intimidate, humilate, or in any shape or form attack their children, or their spouse. Dads don't do that. Dads do some things, but they don't do that.

Dads discover. Dads dig into situations and realize they have more to learn. Dads delve into the unknown and realize there's an alternative to hitting children. Dads do things but they don't strike children. Right, dad?
