Like many people, I consider myself an incurable romantic, and there is a part of me that will always believe in walking off into the sunset to live happily ever after. When I was younger, like many children, I assumed I would get married, live in a nice house, and have a couple of kids.

We are the modern-day soap opera.

Fathers are still considered the most important "doers" in our culture, and in most families they are that.
