When I crawl back up onto my chair after laughing so hard I'll let ya know!

No he doesn't the few times i have even tried to get out (now this is when he is at home) He calls me within 2 or so hours to find out when I will be back.

Poor Karen I am glad you got a good laugh from it.
Actually Jimmy does not do this either, unless I am gone or something is up.

Not an entire day, but sometimes for a couple of hours. Mostly just Darien (sometimes Jonas) at this point.

I wish...

Actually..when Court is home he is really good about going and doing things with Gavin. They will run errands together and he will take him outside and ride bikes or work on the motorcycle. He has taken Gavin on a few day trips. I think when he gets back he will do more with Maddie since she is older now.

Well since they both have visitation its a little different... but usually Angela is with Jamie and once n awhile I think he spends a little time alone with her. David, now that he is living alone, has spent a lot of time with me and Devin, but he is keeping Devin for a few hours alone tomorrow, tho it was my idea so I can clean!

I'm the "daddy" here since Billy is home with the kids all day, and I do take them each out to have time alone with them. Alexander calls our days together "Mommy & Alexander day" or sometimes calls them "dates". I also take the two together sometimes so Billy can do things around the house that can't be done when the kids are there interrupting you every five minutes.

DS is still to young for daddy to take all day- When he is older I'm pretty sure dh will take him out. DH adores the little guy and loves every chance he gets to spend time with him.

Rick is more than happy to keep the kids while I go out and do things. And he is taking Drew gaming with him more and more. He doesn't do as much with Ally since she is young, but he does try to have some one on one time with her.

Mike does it all the time. I think it is very important for both parents to spend real one on one time with their kids.
