If you didn't try, you should.
You say you grew up without a dad. The cycle continues until someone breaks it. You can be that someone.
Deadbeat dads are my pet peeve. A lot of problems in this country are caused by deadbeat dads. Men need to start being men and take some responsibility. And I can't fathom how a man could stand to be away from his child. Mine is my world.
If I was unjustly hard on you I sincerely apologize. Maybe the intentions of the way you came across early in the other post was to prove your opinions on abortion. If that's the case, I can understand the reversal in your story.
If not... well, you know what I think. And so many others feel the same way.
Only you know the truth.

and like I have said repeatedly.... there is nothing "deadbeat" about me. I paid my fucking debt. Every goddamned cent and then some. I tried with the kid his whole life. I even tried to marry the bitch twice. I got nothing but heartache in return for 19 years of trying.
I am done. He's grown and he can do what he chooses. He has always known where I am. Sadly, the only time I've ever gotten a call is when they needed more money to cover something. So like I said... I paid my debt, and I'm done trying. I don't even know where he is at this point. Someday if he wants to get together, I will be here.... more than willing. But my chasing days are fucking over. And my days of any form of fucking contact with his whore mother are WAAAAAY done.
My story has not changed in the slightest. If you actually took "5 hours" to be literal, then that's your own fucking fault. No, I did not live next door to them. ANd that's probably the only thing I could have done on top of what I did. If that makes me a "deadbeat dad" then yeah.... I guess I am. Too bad so fucking sad. I got a life too. I offered it more than once to them and they didn't fucking want it.
That's the last
I got to say on it. You and Carrie wanna pin me as some kinda fucking demon for that.... that's your issue man.... not mine. I could fucking care less. I've done my time. I owe nothin' to no damn body.
