**** father's day

dad's who walk out are bitches.

:2ketten:

this time of year i always feel like a jewish kid who goes to catholic school, at christmas time.

dad's who walk, lost me there bro..

Care to try again, or at least include the decoder from the bottom of the cereal box for this one? :)

~SC~

Ummmm lost????

I think he means dad's that split on their kids... JMO

walk out on family, responsibility, and so on basically dead beat dads.

I have a dead beat dad IMO... he doesnt bother with me and he hasnt been there for me for the past 6 years and he lives prob 15 minutes away... he basicly chose his new wife that of wich he got devorced from few years after he married her over me and my brother... hes scared to talk to me, thats what he tells my mom he doesnt know what ill do... but i prob wouoldnt do anything casue im over it.

my stepdad is great and i concider him more a father figure then my real dad could ever be to me...

yea man.. my brother and i owe so much to our middle school and high school coaches.. even when they were yelling at me for messing up a play, or not being ready, they had no idea how much i was really looking up to them, and listening to every word they said..

to all the coaches out there thanks for doing what you do.

Tazwell,

I'll bet when the day comes if it hasn't already, that YOU will be a terrific DAD to your kids someday and thats what counts!!!!!

sorry to hear that bro. just don't continue the cycle.

My dad walked out on me before I was even born.....it made me hate him when I found out at age 10...My mom try to reunite us and it wasn't pretty....but it did make me feel better that I could beat him in a fight at age 15......I was a big kid.... :madd: Just look at my avatar... :lol: that was at 6 months old... :lol:

Dont perpetuate the cycle. Make sure you give your child the love you never received.

well my dad past away 2 weeks ago. he was killed in a accident on our farm. we buried him on the same weekend as my mom's bday, my bday and my brothers first wedding anniversar. so fathers day is gonna suck me to, except for different reasons. sorry to hear about your father tazwell

appreciate the great advice guys.. one of my worst fears is to do what my old man did to us.

Two things ya gotta do, then.
See a counselor to help you get over your loss, and all the associated emotions (anger, depression, etc). And if you haven't had good parenting modeled to you by anyone, well, you are going to have to find someone to teach you what good, healthy parenting is all about. Most parents are clueless about how to take care of their kids, and if you are gonna do better than what you've seen, you gotta learn the ropes from experts (or at least, folks who are good at it). Otherwise, you're gonna repeat what you've seen and experienced, and that'll be that.

So . . . get yourself some sort of help. A counselor. A parenting class, maybe.

Good luck,

-Tock

I never could understand why a Father would abandon his children....

Sure its hard work at times... But the rewards are far greater in comparison

I never knew my father... my moml eft him before i was born and he's never bothered to find me. Luckily i had my grandfather and later on my stepdad to fill that role. I never knew how I would turn out as a father. But now having a 3 year old little girl and a 2 year old little boy along with several step kids... I love them and raise them the way I always dreamed a father to be. Good luck to you and don't feel that you're alone. There are to many of "us" out there that are fatherless.

Im in the same boat kind of.. i consider my step dad my dad.. more of a man than the one who did the deed.. mine left at 5yo and my stepdad adopted y brother and i a few years after.. so we have his last name and my real dad could be dead and i dont even care..

I waited until i was 44 to have my first child, my wife and i had ourselves a son.
This will be my first Fathers day, If i knew kids were going to be this much fun i would have had a dozen of them. being a dad is the best thing that has ever happened to me, here is a pic of my son @ 5 months old, Super Bowl Sunday

I absolutely don't get fathers who don't support their kids or at least spend time with them.

I adopted my 3 children; they were my Ex's from a pervious marriage. Their Bio-father has only written them a couple of letters in the past 9 years, and hasn't made any attempts to call them or visit them and never paid any child support.

I divorced their mother 3 years ago, and pay child support on time every month, and get them every other weekend. It is difficult dealing with the Ex., but there is no way in hell I could go without seeing them, they are my children now.

Bigen,

I wish we had more Bros like you in this world!

Hats off to you brutha and those kids will someday be there for you too!!!!

I know what you mean man....My pops cheated on my mom then they got divorced and since I was 10 or so he has never paid child support or anything..... I played D 1 lacrosse and the bum never saw a single game....I don't celebrate Father's Day, was of my time! I'm lucky to have a great Step-Dad though that stepped right in and he has been more of a man than my father ever was. In a certain way I'm glad my dad did what he did cause it taught me what it takes to be a man.
