Hello, world!
I'm a father of one infant and one toddler. My stake in this site is to learn from you, and also to contribute as much as I can!
Based on my own childhood and parenthood, my specialties are (among others): twins, languages, and international aspects. For the record, I'm an identical twin and married to a fraternal twin. I speak 4 languages fluently and I've lived in 5 countries (Europe, Japan).
I enjoy using my experience to help others. That is why I am active at even more SE sites in the StackExchange network on topics that interest me.
Outside of this site, I'm something of a Swiss army knife both professionally and in private, able to juggle a wild variety of things at once. I've worked in every kind of business that uses software. I'm also very good with tools, both IT and mechanic. Whether you need software design or assembling some IKEA furniture, I'm your man for the job. I'm generally soft-spoken but driven by clear principles.
To learn more about me, see my Google+ profile.

What are some do's and dont's for an effective bedtime ritual? ...but don't rush it. In our family, the routine is meant for winding down, so it's okay to spend maybe 15 on it. But not an hour! |

At what age should you start giving your children pocket money? You drive a tough bargain. I wouldn't want to bank with you at those rates ;-) but it's a useful idea once they're old enough to understand the principle and remember weeks back and think weeks ahead. |
