I think activities and hobbies might foster parent-child relationships. Besides, I love doing DIY projects at home.
very very very good. another thing you might want to consider is that god as the christians look at him, has very very many emotions. let's look at jealousy. jealousy is a petty human emotion yet god, an omnipotent and omniscient being, should not be able to be jealous since being omnipotent means that nothing can hurt him, and being omniscient means he knows all and should not be jealous due to an outcome that was foreseeable to him. also, you might want to consider that god handles things like a mafia boss. god slayed all the firstborn children of the egyptians because the Pharaoh refused to let the jews go. that is a mob tactic on god's part. god murdered the innocent children who had nothing to do with the enslavement of jews in egypt. just like a mafia boss would have everyone you love killed because of your refusal to cooperate. take a moment to chew on that.
For the best answers, search on this site shorturl.im/axXAY I must sympathise with you. Plumbing is a real pain. I have tried to remove these before but I think maybe even if you did get them off you would find the reason for the leak is that the copper under the ring has yielded and distorted - so a new one would not help. Suggest you take the bull by the horns and put some more pipe in.
For copper compression rings,try a propane torch to loosen the corrosion between the pipe and the ring. For plastic or rubber rings, try a vise-grips with a curved jaw. Be careful, though, or you could deform the pipe.
I highly recommend a cigar box banjo and the magazine, Make. The link below is to the issue that has the cigar box banjo plans. The magazine in general has all kinds of cool stuff to, ofcourse, make. Potato Guns, stop motion photography, etc. My six year old and I made a banjo for them. It was a blast to do together and watch them wear my giant safety goggles and use the drill press. I never got the electric pick-up to work, though. I recommend sanding the neck of the banjo well and round the edges. Also file down the points on the nails (Used as frets).
A guitar is best. It's easy to carry around, portable, and you can accompany anyone with it. A xylophone? It costs thousands of dollars to buy, where would you put it, and it is impractical to make. If you had that free time, like many hours a day, for the next few months and take up a lot of resources and money to make it. You can buy a cheap classical guitar for 50 bucks, and everyone can learn some easy chords without too much investment for some instant gratification. Xylophone requires immense stay for what? Plus, if your kids grow bored with it, which do you think you'd have a better time accepting. Plus the guitar is cool.
