THE NEXT SURVIVOR SERIES Six married men will be dropped on an island with 1 car and 4 kids each, for 6 weeks.

Each kid plays two sports and either takes music or dance classes. There is no access to fast food.

Each man must take care of his 4 kids, keep his
assigned house clean, correct all homework, complete science projects, cook, do laundry, etc.
The men only have access to television when the kids are asleep and all chores are done. There is only one TV between them and there is NO REMOTE.
The men must shave their legs, wear makeup daily, which they must apply themselves, either while driving or while making four lunches.

They must attend weekly PTA meetings; clean up after their sick children at 3:00 a.m.; make an Indian hut model with six toothpicks, a tortilla and one marker; and get a 4-year-old to eat a serving of peas.
The kids vote them off the island, based on performance. The last man wins only if.............. he has enough energy to be intimate with his spouse at a moment's notice.
If the last man does win, he can play the game
over and over again for the next 18-25 years ... eventually earning the right
to be called "Mother."

Great idea but none of them could ever make it. Kingfish would be the first one to break camp running. When our kids were babies, if he saw that look on their faces that looked like they might just be thinkin about dirtying up their diaper, he suddenly had somewhere he had to be. Thanks for the laugh smokeit, I needed that.

Too funny. My df would never sign-up for that. He won't change our son's diaper either!

I think we might have a chance. My hubby has taken on all 5 of our kids while go away for days at a time and he seems to manage - of course, never to my standards but then I have to learn to "let go". He might be a million dollar winner on that Survivor but would never earn the right to be called "Mom". That's mine, all mine!

Great scenario, Smokeit. Thanks for the chance to fantasize. LOL

to Smokeit:

great scenaria: from a male point-of-view: am sure that we could do it / as long as we are not subject to wive's critcisms/nagging while doing it.

The only things that I could not handle would be the (reee-diculous) idea of make-up and that female self-imposed torture of high-heeled shoes.

ROTFL... now, that's funny, Smokeit! I'd pay for live feeds for that one.

As a man who raised his children on his own (with no help from their birth-mother), I am not quite sure I see the challenge. I did all that stuff (well, except for the leg shaving and make-up stuff), in addition to which I held down a full time job working 40-50 hours a week for over 12 years.

Good for Duncan! I am pleased to see male responses here.
**
I am constantly surprised how many single Dads there are raising the kids. The women just take off and leave. There are deadbeat moms just as there are deadbeat dads...but the Moms arent legally used as Mealtickets so they are allowed to just disappear and the men are left financially raising the children alone.
***
ON TOPIC, that would be a GREAT Survivor Idea but I like to think a BigBrother House full of dads and kids would even be more interesting LOL...Imagine it!! No working TV at all (but I think that we should provide a remote to play with or all the guys would go crazy)
