I have a fever and I have a bad headache again. I hope what ever I have it is gone soon. Donna, did you get me sick!!? LOL
My dd just called me. Boy is she out for blood with her dad. She went and overdrew on their account they have together. She bought a winter coat she needed that he wouldn't buy for her. She only had a light weight jacket and that isn't enough when temps get to 30 and below here in the winter. She bought some cloths she needed too. I thought in my mind, he is going to pay for her one way or another and she is seeing to it. This is between them two. If he calls me I am telling him that. It has nothing to do with me.
She told me he hasn't said one word to her for 3 days. Her step mom hasn't talked to her either. Her step mom plays games on the computer all night. My dd told me when she does leave his house she will never talk to him again. I know when she moved back in with me after the first time she lived with him she didn't talk to him for a year. She has given him so many tries at being a dad to her and them having a relationship and he hurts her over and over.
When she was young he never wanted to see her. He never wanted to be a parent. He has a son he never sees. He abandoned him. His son lives in Florida somewhere. His son is about 15. This is the son he made while cheating on me. I am glad I am not with him anymore. What a waste of human flesh. A worthless human being. Can you tell I am angry and I

Tina, I'm sorry you're not feeling well. I think it's a good move to step away from the disputes between your daughter and her father - this is not where you want to waste your energy right now.
I am continually amazed at how people can mistreat and abandon their kids. I have to think (and hope) that deep down your ex feels really low about himself. Society doesn't look at these men (term used loosely) kindly at all. Most women find it remarkably unattractive when a guy abandons his children, so I wonder about this wife of his. She must have some issues.
We are both hot-tempered gals, so I know it's so hard, but try to let go of the hatred. Indifference is the goal here.
Feel better. Many hugs,
Cari
Tina,
The stress of this with DD probably has your immune system wekened--I know stress affects me that way a lot.
My heart goes out to your DD--my father has always made it very plain he wished I'd never been born and made my life a living hell with his mental & physical abuse.
I'm so sorry you are sick...I hope I didn't it give to you ;o) LOL
Girl...just knowing he triggered you is a big step.
God could not be everywhere, so
It was a good thing I didn't have a mouthful of DP when I read that "sperm donor" comment or I would have sprayed my monitor down. One of my good friends uses that to describe her grandsons father. There was a saying I saw somewhere, it went something like this "Any boy can be a father, but it takes a real MAN to be a DADDY"....I don't understand people not standing up and taking responsibility for things good or bad.
Here is an interesting fact though, the PERCENTAGE of women who don't pay their court ordered child support is higher than the PERCENTAGE of men....I highlight the percentages simply because the TOTAL numbers of women to men paying child support is so much lower. Yes I know with low numbers, the percentages can be skewed rather quickly also, just something to think about though, before males get painted with TOO broad a brush. LOL.
