I can understand were all of you are coming from. I have 3 kids from 2
different guys and I have never asked one of them for child support. I
know I would never get it any way. My son's "father" left when is was 2
years old and he is now 19 and in the Army. He is doing great just
having me and his sisters in his life. I told him when I knew he was
old enough to handle it the truth about his "father" about our
relationship and about why he left. I think when the kids are young you
dont bad mouth the "father" but you dont sugarcoat it either. When they
are old enough they deserve the truth no matter how good or bad. My son
is a better person for it today. My girls "father" I dont have to say
anything about him because my girls have lived it and know what kind of
a person he is. He makes promises to them and doesnt keep them and even
though they know how he is it still hurts them, but it is making them
stronger and hopefully make better choices of men than I did. I give
unconditional love to all 3 of my kids and its seems to be enough for
them.
