What's going on with you?

Thanks that would be lovely lol nah just take her out then maybe he could make decisions with his mind instead of his dick and open his mind up to see what a fucktard he is and realizing the only ppl he's hurting in this situation is his kids not me....

 

They usually never realize it until it's too late. Hopefully he wakes up before then.

 

Well apparently the only duties he has as a father is from when he picks them up on the weekends he has them till the time he drops them off on the same weekend. Other then that, he has no other duties other then the child support in his mind. I know I have no right to complain because other men are wayyyyyyy crappier dads then what my kids deal with. Just don't understand how someone could be so selfish when it comes to dealing with your own children....ugh

 

i love it:smt060i want to send her some toys and treats

 

i have a good one for you...my ex took his two little boys to disney world last year and left my son at home...epic fail

 

That's hella fucked up.

 

I agree it's horrible....and what sucks more is you feel so badly for your kids for what douches they are when they act like this. It's hard to watch the disappointment in their eyes.

 

that is the hardest part CNG...all you can do is make the best of a not great situation...i hide how i feel about my ex from my son...i can empathize with his disappointment but would rather he grow up and figure out on his own what a loser his dad was while he was growing up...kids are very forgiving...

 

Kids are so forgiving, it's heartbreaking. My Mom hide her feelings for my father and was so good about it but my brother never figured out what a jerk he was. Brother still has dad in his life and the relationship is incredibly toxic for my brother.

It must take incredible strength to hide those feelings ladies, I admire you.

 

I have pretty similar deal going on with my ex and our 2 kids, he sees them once a month sometimes every six weeks takes them to a theme park/cinema out to eat then delivers them back the same day, never has them over night, his latest girlfriend of about a year does not seem to like the idea of them staying over, although if she has that much animosity towards my kids then i don't really want them to go anyway.

He pays child support same as yours but feels no shame in not coming to special doctors appointments for our Son or even to one parents evening since he started school, lol to be honest I've stopped bothering to tell him now and he had the cheek to say last time we went to speech therapy "why wasn't he told"
He does openly admit though that he is a terrible father but does nothing to change it.

 

I feel lucky. My ex was a horrible father when I was still with him - he relied on me to do everything.

He's truly stepped up his game now that we're living separately. He's there when he's needed and helps me out when I need someone to watch her. And gives us extra money when needed.

It took us living apart for him to realize how to be a good dad. It doesn't make any sense, but I'm going with it.

 

dead beat dads piss me off. -_-

What confuses me the most are situations like some I've personally witnessed...like a dad that doesn't really bother to have anything to do with his children while they're growing up, but then when they're adults he suddenly wants to be a part of their lives. I understand that perhaps time taught the man a lesson, and it just took a while for him to realize that he should step up and be a dad, but why wait so long? It can breed a lot of animousity in the children, to the point where they may or may not even want to see him once they've grown.

My dad was never divorced from my mom, but he seems to be following the pattern in my example (though he's not who I was referring to). He expresses vague interest in me now as an adult, but by waiting so long the relationship between us is uncomfortable at best. Though I count my own situation as unique, and not with those I mentioned in my example. In that situation the father actively seeks a relationship with his adult children, and finally shows interest in their lives like a father should.

It's just strange to me.

 

I have been on the forum for 5 years. I just noticed my join date. When I see I have been some place for literally YEARS or have thousands of posts it makes me wonder what I have gotten for all my time spent.

Saw a Martha Steward segment when she talked about twitter. She said she timed her self and would only spend 5 min per day on there. Said it wasnt financially beneficial to her so she wouldnt put much of her time into it.

Wish I had her discipline.

 

*erases my post count*

Having a movie night with my love. just watched a crazy hilarious zombie B movie called "Dance of the Dead". Hahahaha zombies on prom night. Getting ready to make it serious with "Children of Men", though. -Fantastic- movie, btw.

Argh, homework for the entire weekend though! Orientation for my job (finally) on Saturday, and homework all the rest of the time. Gotta get together all of the music, sound effects, and visuals for both my commercial and film, -and- create an animatic for the movie, too! And write a silly paper about a silly short story, and a bunch of other crap by next week!

On an up note: gonna try and convince my housing director to let us throw a christmas party/dance for the housing students. I think it'd be quite fun!

 

My friend at work wants to put me on as a bouncer at a go-go bar he bar tends at. Its in a rough neighborhood, but I'm up for the job. Its 80 bucks a night. Well thats all I got.

 

Love that movie! I have been looking at my DVD trying to find a good night to watch it again.

 

Bookworm darling - The movie made me cry, again. It always does! But I dried the tears and jumped right into 28 Weeks Later...thought it was appropriate. Zombie movie, British movie, British-Zombie movie.

Just got home from orientation...should be able to start my new job soon! Have to get more uniform pieces, but thankfully they'll be taken out of my check(s), instead of having to pay up front. It's weird...apparently this company is the top in it's field, and I'll be working a lot of extremely well-to-do events...often with celebrities, I've been told. Guy let it slip today that us newbs should be requested to work an upcoming gig with a famous footballer and his wife, who's names *coughDavidandVictoriaBeckham* shall remain anonymous.

 

Had a bit of a shit night out last night. Seems that all the decent people decided to stay in or something. Even got stalked the whole night by some creepy Indian dude who followed me right to my sister's flat. Great. It was good though because I got to see my best friend who I haven't seen in ages.

 

Hey kids!

Well I finally have internet at home! It is as slow as a snail but I have it.

Hope to find some of you in chat one day soon. I need updates, updates and updates!

Did CB and J meet? How did it go?
