The way that the father treated his children was very upsetting. I was sooo happy to hear the words he said about himself at the end of the show. He seemed to realize the way he treated his wife and children was the same was his father treated him and that he fell into the same pattern. He was truely right when he said that one day his wife would walk out on him and his children would have moved on in life and he would be all alone. I know that most parents have dreams for how they're children would grow up to be. But not searching your children's minds and interest and helping them expand on what ever it is that sparks them in life would be a mistake. TRUST ME, I know how that father feels about his children be a MAN MAN or a real woman,because my hisband has dreams for our children too.My husband is a narcotics cop and a formor marine and trust me, there wouldn't be anything better in the world other than his son to go off to the marines one day or become a professional football player. But, I can honestly tell you how amazed I am about him letting our children think for themselves and how he helps them with whatever it is they want to do or explore. You can only try to guide them alittle but you need to be open and hear what they a   Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

"RE: Last night's episode of Trading Spouses" I really enjoyed that episode, both of them actually. My first impression was that there was something wrong with Sandra, the only child. It didn't take long to realize that she was just trying to please her parents. I hope they take what was said to them seriously...and I hope Sandra makes some changes in her life. She seems like a great kid, but needs to spread her wings a bit imho. Mom's the one with the problems in that family. She would drive me insane in no time LOL I'd probably smack her *sheepish look* The other family really hit home for me. Not so much the behaviors of the father towards the kids, but the stuff he said in the end about changing and realizing what he was doing. I have a very different situation going on with my beloved, but the end results are pretty much the same issue. I made him watch the last 10 minutes of the show...3 times. Sometimes hearing things from someone else is better than hearing it from someone you're close to. We had a very long discussion about it afterwards and I think he's willing to make an effort to change!! He finally saw what it was that I've been trying to point out to him for a few years now, finally got it. I can't tell you how happy this makes me. I hope that both households really do benefit from the swap. And I'm being a bit selfish here, but I'm hoping my family does too =) That was one of the better episodes imho. It came across as very heart-felt and real. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Karma doesn't come back on people because some universal controller-god pushes buttons. It comes back on people because they dig holes for themselves to fall into.   Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

"RE: Last night's episode of Trading Spouses" It was the best trading spouses episode in my opinion. I was pleasantly surprised that the father realized he has to change. And Sylvana better leave her daughter alone for a bit. Doesn't she want her to grow into a mature adult? Did anyone notice that Sandra constantly spoke in a loud, extremely expressive voice, as if she were on stage? I found it strange.   Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top
