Here’s some data for your research.
My wife and I have four children, 3 boys and 1 girl. Their ages range from 13 to 27.
I had only a limited knowledge of what a parent and father really meant when we had our first child.
I have learned more about myself, spouse, family, friends, neighbors and community than I ever could have imagined. I am still learning.
Clearly, your life will never be the same. For many folks that is a good thing, it has been for me.
As far as comics, I'm not sure if it was the kids as much as just finding myself involved in such a wonderful variety of other adventures that has tempered my interest over the last couple of decades or so.
