I don't mean to talk bad about the guy, but my step-son's father is a loser, so I took the little man fishing for his first time a few weeks ago and he caught a tiny little catfish. He was so happy, you'd have thought he'd hooked into Jaws with Robert Shaw cheering him on! Kids will be embarassed to hang out with there parents before they know it, so I LOVE taking any chance I get to hang out with my daughter and step-son.
