Munchkin Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 Happy fathers day to those that actually deserve it. Im feeling extremely down at this moment because the father of my son cannot even text to see how his son is doing. He said he wouldn't be there for him and I guess he's keeping his word. He was angry about me taking him to child support. My ex moved out and has completely forgotten about his son. . My son doesn't need him but I just cant seem to comprehend how someone could be so heartless. My heart is breaking knowing that he has moved on and doesnt care about his baby boy. I sometimes wonder if he thinks of him. Is there anyone that would like to share their story? any men? Link to post Share on other sites
Damia Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 Hi Munchkin, Well done on getting child support for your son,even if it did make your x angry.If his dad can not give him time I suppose money is the next best thing. I'm in a similar situation My xH has a girlfriend 19 years younger and has no time for our kids he is to busy trying to keep up with her(he is 48) I find it so so sad that these guys can just forget their children. My kids are 12 &16 and think their dad is a huge idiot but Im sure deep down it hurts a lot that he has no time for them. I try very hard not to speak badly about him but sometimes its all I can do to shut up! I hope in the future they will see what they gave up but Im not going to bet on it! Hang in there and be the best darn mother you can be. One day your son will thank you he may be 30 when he realizes but one day he will. Link to post Share on other sites

worlybear Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 I'm a man... I have a daughter...but I'm not sure my opinion counts as I would never walk out on her....NEVER. Shes daddy's princess That is so good to hear StoneCold. Wish my daughters had a dad like that-sadly he has turned his back on them both apart from very occasional "how r u" texts to older daughter at Uni. She's just gone to Australia for an extended trip and hasn't told him as she felt she had nothing to say! Younger daughter had a "me,me,me," card the other day from him, all about what he's been doing. He signed off with, "Take Care of yourself, Dad."..... She's 9.:rolleyes: ( And no, they didn't want to send father's day cards to a man who is rapidly becoming more distant by the day and I did suggest it several times over the last few weeks.) We were both offered a mediation meeting but he claimed he couldn't afford the petrol- (50 miles)..... ! Perhaps he should've thought about the implications of taking on someone else's family and providing a house for them, then! Link to post Share on other sites
Tayla Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 Some folks have such sad stories here, and to those I wish you a more empowering sense that you are still there for your children. You get to smile pridefully at their accomplishments and no amount of money will substitute for that. Count the blessings they bestow upon you and vice versa. There are simply some folks that are not parent material and these stories speak of such. Kids don't need parents bad mouthing one another nor do they need disassociation because "Daddy" or "Mommy " have a new significant other. As adults we can be role models that quietly speak amongst adults friends about the "distant" parent, so its good that its done here and not in front of them. What good you can do for them on a parent honored day is be that honorable parent and share a hug or make a memory. Link to post Share on other sites
photogeek Posted June 25, 2011 Share Posted June 25, 2011 Kind of the opposite for me. I never really have had a fathers day with my father as far as I can comprehend. Usually that day has been filled with anger and fighting of some sort between my parents. My father has a hell of a knack to get drunk on special occasions like fathers day. It's difficult for me personally to be endearing and kind to him if he is drunk/ and or hung over. And it's been like that every year as far as I can remember. Honestly though, maybe one day he will realize his mistakes, and true, it is sad that he can just walk out on someone that is literally a part of him. Link to post Share on other sites

I understand how you feel, im 16 and my parents split when i was 12 or 13... he barely ever see's us and when he does he doesn't do anything with us. To be honest with you, I would prefer it if he didn't come to see us. (Us being myself and two younge brothers) Sure, your son will obviously want to know who his dad is, but children who grow up without really knowing their mum or dad, and kids like myself who don't see him for a while at a young age couldn't care very much when they've met them and realise how much of a bastard they are. Because lets face it, his dad is a cunt for doing that to his son. Link to post Share on other sites
Lisa_H Posted June 26, 2011 Share Posted June 26, 2011 It is heartbreaking to know that so many children grow up without fathers. My ex sees our kids a couple times a month. I had the kids call him on Father's Day and he barely spent 30 seconds on the phone with them -- then he gets mad cause all they want to do is come home when they do go visit! Hard to understand - my father passed away a few years ago and I would do anything - as I am sure he would - to be able to spend Father's Day with him again. Stay strong and be the best parent you can be! Link to post Share on other sites
