Eventually you have to come to the realization that, no matter how hard you try, your kids have to sometimes fend for themselves. I learned this from Henry.
Henry has a problem with my daughter, so he also has a problem with me. For all of you who are wondering how I could write about a [...]]]></description>

The old saying goes that there are no small parts, only small actors. I believe that, and have tried to impress that feeling in my daughter as she enters into a foreign world – her first school musical.
I have experience in this world, having performed in three school plays during my time at Archbishop Ryan [...]]]></description>

Goodbye, old fiend.
The opportunity was just too delicious. And so, 2009 decided that it had one more trick up its sleeve before a year that I would just as soon forget left for good.
It wasn’t a fun year, but I’m sure that I’m not alone in that assessment. After losing my job just before Christmas [...]]]></description>

Somewhere in the halls of the Criminal Justice Center, somebody else was wearing my belt. It might not even have been his fault, but I was the one holding up my pants for the rest of the day. Welcome to jury duty.
I began to dread the prospect of jury duty from the moment I received [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[“Would you please turn that down?” I called out to my son, who was relaxing from his day at school. Normally when I say that phrase, it’s because of some music on his mp3 (Japanese rock is his favorite). However, he has started a new regimen when he relaxes after school &#8212; one that I [...]]]></description>

Sometimes, all it comes down to is uniforms.
Denise Maccari knows about uniforms. As the mother of sophomore at Northeast Catholic High School, she understands that uniforms have to be bought, and not at a discount price. If you’re lucky, perhaps a neighbor with a son just out of school will be able to give you [...]]]></description>

You can always tell when the new television season begins from the return of the tried and true TV character: stupid dad.
It didn’t used to be that way. The television of black and white images and only three channels boasted a plethora of wise fathers. Chances are you didn’t know what they did for a [...]]]></description>

The summer is ending, and my daughter has begun her yearly excitement at the prospect of her impending birthday. She watches each commercial and scours the magazines, looking for yet another present to suggest to her parents. Already, I’ve been told that we are allowed to buy three different types of cake. Which one, thankfully, [...]]]></description>
