The Analog Grownup Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 I voted for Alex, but I don't think Neil would be such a strict naysayer as you might think. :) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LedRush Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 (edited) Neil. He still knows how to laugh and go with the flow with friends, but he'd sit you down and force you to read that book (like he did to Geddy in the Rush in Rio documentary...poor Geddy is trying to look interested while all he wants to do is anything else). Alex would have my kids doing shots and smoking weed while wearing trash bags on their heads. If I need a babysitter (for me, not for my kids), Alex is my man. Geddy is a good second choice, but I want someone who I think would be both a good teacher and someone I can trust to act responsibly. Neil wins out on both.

Lorraine Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 I voted for Alex but, after reading Led's post, now I'm not so certain. I thought Alex would be entertaining and the most patient. I think Neil would be good too as long as he didn't have to do it for long since he gets ants in his pants if he stays put for too long. Geddy I am not so sure how he would be. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drbirdsong Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 Geddy for sure. Alex would just get them too riled up and they would come back out of control. Neil would bum them out and they would come back depressed. Seriously though, Geddy seems like a gentle soul and I'm just betting kids love him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Janie Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 One?! Are you kidding me. It would take all three to control my boys. They would gravitate towards Alex though because he seems the most goofy. Geddy could probably calm things down once he separated everyone into their own corners for time outs (Al included) and I imagine Neil would break out the rules from that point on. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'd sit the kids down and start reading one of his Peart Updates and they'll fall right asleep. :zzz: :zzz: :zzz: Edited November 15, 2013 by losingit2k 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EagleMoon Posted November 15, 2013 Share Posted November 15, 2013 I think it would depend on how old the kids were. I think older kids would really love hanging with Neil. Alex would appeal to kids in the 5 to 12-year-old age bracket. And I think if we're talking about babies, then Geddy would be the man I'd pick. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RushBoingo Posted November 15, 2013 Share Posted November 15, 2013 I would say it would depend on the age and personality of the children. But I would love to have Alex around to casually talk to as I leave/come in, so I gave my vote to him. Now if all three of them were to sit at once, that would be a powerhouse. All of the energy Alex has taking care of the kids, while Geddy employs his multitasking skills to keep the house tidy and keep the kids out of trouble, and meanwhile Neil would be patiently waiting in the bedroom reading, when the child comes in, he only needs to read one page before his voice has already lulled the children to sleep, where he will quietly resume his own reading. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pause Rewind Replay Posted November 15, 2013 Share Posted November 15, 2013 Geddy. Alex would turn the kids' science homework into an experiment ant blow the house up, Neil would fall asleep smoking and burn it down 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
