I think he was referring to my comment about the greatest dad award going to either you or him...

I know, I was just trying to make light of that incredibly awkward statement. Engine got it.

Bad wording on my part. He is a real test of my patience a lot of times. Constantly have to remind myself of his limitations.

I don't envy your situation in the slightest, but my hats off to you for being the kind of father that is willing to put in the extra.

I agree.

I love children and have always had really strong maternal instincts. I recall even as a child myself, when I was in kindergarten, having very nurturing and protective feelings toward my classmates.

I’m a single mother -- have a grown daughter who is 23 and a son who is 11. The interesting thing is, my daughter works with autistic children on a daily basis and we have occasionally discussed whether she wants children of her own (in the future). She says she does not want children because she is very devoted to her career and claims to be perhaps “too selfish” to have her own children. I tell her I think the opposite is the case, given her choice of career.
