Tissue won't help this one

Good question, I think they do it because they can do. What i wonder is why I still do it!

I have been a single father for over 4 years now to 3 beautiful and smart girls. I will admit that it has been challenging (especially when my oldest hit puberty last year) but I love my kids and will do whatever I can to give them a great life, even if it means reaching down deep and pulling out my feminine side to help support them emotionally. Life has a tendency to throw us a curve ball once in a while but being a father is the most rewarding experience I have ever have and I will cherish every moment I have with them.
Thank you for the support!!

I cherish every moment I have with them and try not to think about why their mother left. All know to do is be there for them and cherish everything.

I am not really sure why a person wouldn't want to stay with their child. There are many reasons, most of them are crappy reasons. One thing that i have learned is that if a child doesn't have a good positive male role model in their life, they are more likely to turn to someone else who is willing to give them that attention. That person tends to be the wrong person and the child is more likely to turn to criminal acts and other negative actions. Not all of them though thankfully. Then again i could be wrong about all this.
All I know for sure if that I have been raising my 3 daughters on my own for over 4 years now. I wish their mother was in their life more but I can't worry about that. I just concentrate on being the best father I can and be there for my girls when they need me and try to give the best chance in life that i can.

As the paerent you need to do what is in the best interest of your son. If child was born out of wedlock then mother automatically has custody. My advice would be to come up with some kind of visitation rights that YOU are comfortable with and what will be best for your son. When your son gets old enough to make his own informed decisions then let him decide what kind of relationship he wants with his father.
As a single parent myself i understand the difficulties you have to face. Before making any major decision i consider how that decision will affect my children. A father figure that visits when he feels like it isn't healthy for your childs mental health in my opinion. The father needs to work on building your trust and your sons trust.

Good luck with your son and have faith in yourself.

Hey great topic, I wish all good luck on your recovery. I am a chemical dependence counselor and i have dealt with my own addiction so i really feel for all of you. Good luck and stay in the program, it does work.

Well Lyann, if you really think and feel that way about NASCAR and us fans then why post here. I thought this was for NASCAR fans. You have your opinion and your entitled to it but why call all of us stupid. WE haven't passed judgement on you so why pass judgement on us. If I am stupid for being a fan of NASCAR then maybe I should give my Bachelor degree back and drop out of this Masters program I am working on. I feel rather offended by you calling me stupid for watching NASCAR. I feel it was really uncalled for.

That is a bit soon.

If the person has a gambling addiction then you should help them get some help before you start a relationship.

I'm not very good at gambling. I don't have a good poker face, even my kids beat me!

The last time i tried going international, she turned out to be a scammer, actually i found 5 of them, whats up with that? but seriously, with my schedule, i can't really go too far.
