10 minute Super Dad............. Cherry: Super dad just called. Let me ask you guys. If you had no idea when or if you were ever going to see your kids again, would you call once a week for 10 minutes??
He thinks he is fulfilling his fatherly duty by calling once a week on Sunday mornings at 10 here. Course he only speaks to them for about 5 mins each, if they are lucky.
He was even half an hour late last week and said he was busy watching a movie and almost totally forgot.......haw haw haw. >:( >:(
I really wish he would just fucking give up and leave us the hell alone. He HAD to tell my son that his cousin was outside playing at his house. Course Ean started crying and wanted to "go live with his dad" or go back to Kansas.
*SIGH* :-\
Re: 10 minute Super Dad............. twine: i don't know how fathers do that, I call my two daughters everynight before bed, when they arn't with me i miss them so much...My stbxw was giving me grief for calling there every night she said i was stalking her, i told her not to even answer the phone but to let one of my kids answer.Last weeki was at a friends house watching the hocky game and i excused myself outside so i could call them on my cell phone....I know they appreciate hearing me and i have started to make a video tape for them, next time they are i will send it home with them, wanted to this weekend but it isn't done yet. I have put some of our camping trips on it, and the last xmas we were all together and some things like that i know they will love watching.
Re: 10 minute Super Dad............. Cherry: Twine you sound like a truly wonderful father. I really wish my kids father would take even half that interest in them. They are really and always have been a thing of "when it is convienent for him".
If he was like that, I wouldnt mind sharing parenting time with him. But not a concern now. He said nothing about us moving from KS to TN. Not a peep and obviously doesnt care more than to call them that once.
*sigh*
Re: 10 minute Super Dad............. alonewith2: One of the hardest things for me to do is to stop feeling for my kids. But I know I must, or I will endure endless days of pain and heartbreak. The beauty of my children being so young is that they don't understand exactly the whole situation and how much their fathers are "absent." I know eventually the realization will set in as they get older, but until then I plan on filling every one of their days with love and happiness from me...so that they won't even have time to ponder the thought of their missing dads.
