we where talking on messenger, then i said i can i call you. it seems messenger is so with out feeling. i called him, but blocked my call. we talked on the phone for about 2 and half hours. later tonight he told me to call him again. omg, i heard his little guys, they are so adorable, and he has so much patience with them. he's such a good dad.

Oh Tori!

I just want to point out something Tori. (If I have a differing opinion, it isn't considered "unsupportive" is it? I don't mean to be unsupportive but sometimes something smacks me in the face and I have to express it)!
It seems like he was home alone with his little ones, because otherwise he wouldn't have been able to talk to you on the phone and you wouldn't have heard his kids if they weren't there.
HOW is it being a "good dad" to be on the phone with someone for 2 1/2 hours when you could be spending quality time with your children?? Even if he was on the phone with his MOTHER for 2 1/2 hours, it would be somewhat neglectful of him in regards to his children. If I am caring for a small child in my house I cut conversations on the phone to anyone short - I LIKE playing with little kids. While I know I could still "keep an eye" on them, with cordless phones, and they wouldn't be in danger, I still would rather spend that time with them. He's their dad. He should have spent most of that time with them, interacting.
Some would say that I fell from grace... but I didn't.
You've got a lot of choices. I
Neglectful by talking on the phone to friend? At what point does a parent have their own life with their adult friends outside of being a parent? As adults, we wear many hats. Granted, walking and chewing gum at the same time is not easy, but some of us can master doing more than 1 thing at a time....If I wore my mom hat at work all day, I would never get anything done and if I didn't have girls night out evey once in awhile, I am not sure I could maintain my identity as a person without being pigeon holed into a single identity of "mom".
