Show Description: Kids are our most valuable asset and our most sacred responsibility. Their spiritual foundations are formed by age 9 and pretty much set by age 12. If parents are not taking a proactive role in shaping their lives and minds, we are in real trouble. My wife and I have been very active at every moment of our children's lives to this point to be sure we know what they are doing, how they are doing it, and with whom. We also lift up real human interaction rather than mind-numbing video and computer time for 8 hours a day. Parking kids in front of a screen in their bedrooms, in the back seat of the car, and with the handset for any time in between is a great way to grow a kid who does not know how to relate to people or care about them or value anyone besides themselves. That is the easy way to not be inconvenienced by having kids. That is the point: having kids changes your life, they are a responsibility, not an inconvenience to be parked at every opportunity. Moreover, God values kids immeasurably. Jesus was clear about that. Parents, step up.

Take Allen's Poll

Yes....she can do it all
No...there is no way
Maybe...but her husband needs to step up and be the stay at home dad

It may not be about right or left
but about right and wrong;
but that doesn't mean we don't vote!
Allen's Top Five 5 BBQ Restaurants
1. Tucker's BBQ in Macon, Georgia. Unbelievable food. Words cannot describe.
2. Fincher's BBQ - Macon, Georgia. Why does Macon have such good BBQ?
3. Ole' Timer BBQ. Rome, Georgia. Great food but check out the BBQ Turkey. One of a kind.
4. Sprayberry's BBQ - Newnan, GA. Barbecue is good, but the Brunswick stew and onion rings are divine.
5. Shane's Rib Shack and BBQ - the original on Hwy. 155 in McDonough is superb. Ribs and pulled pork!
