When you have children they are the womans sole responsibility and the man can drop them at any time, without a care! Unless, of course, he want's to use them against their mother just to be a (insert colorful word here). My STBX should be neutered.
My vent for the day. :)

Calla and I were just talking about this in another thread... about how Dads who show and interest once in a blue moon, like my xh, are given all sorts of praise when they decide to do something with their child for say the first time all year, when such actions are just expected from the Mom, year round, all the rest of the time "jack" (short for my real nickname for xh) decides to be selfish and not to be there for their children...


I feel your pain...


*hugs*

Oh, everyone knows THAT!

And you know what else? There's a HUGE business in replacing the drywall in boy's bathrooms because they can't seem to aim and the drywall gets ruined quickly.

*smile*

It's been a long day.

Don't forget about the laundry that they don't do themselves and the lovely underwear because they're allergic to using too much TP. >eye roll<

How true!!! My stbx tells me all the time that he'd rather have the state get custody of our children rather than me (I don't deserve them) if I won't give him the boys. He couldn't even watch them for a week on his own without going crazy! And I love when we're home and he has an errand to run...he just walks out the door, but if I have something to do, either they are both with me, or I have to ASK if I can leave them with him!! Hello!!! These are your kids too!! And you want custody?? Yea, ok...not gonna happen! LOL

I feel really bad for you guys, I know both sides. My ex took off to Calf with his 17 yr. old girlfriend. I was left to raise my kids alone. He used to threaten me all of the time. Finally one day I told him to bring it on. He didn't know that I could have had him declared an unfit father, No support, No contact. He didn't see his kids for over 10 yrs. his choice.
The other side is my son, he was a stay at home dad. He raised his son from the time he was 9 months old until he was 2 1/2 when Mom took off, left the state. It has been an awful year. She will not let him even talk to his son. He only see him maybe once a month on a web cam. The last time he saw him, the little guy was hysterical. Crying and laughing. He was so happy to see his daddy. He was kissing the computer screen. I had to go outside, it was to painful to watch
Not every guy is a jerk. My second H loved our son. He was a good dad.

Boy, I could have written your message myself! I don't think I'll ever understand why they can do this! My STBX is also a huge offender. His weekend will be coming and he'll call me Friday a.m. and tell me he has other plans! GRRRRRRR! What is wrong this picture!

Hang in there Amanda!
P.S. That's my daughter's name! My favorite!
Hugs,
Jennifer
