Wondeful daddy huh..? i'm glad some of you have had great, thoughtful fathers. Mine just wasn't or should i say isn't one
I am right there with you. I don't know if your father not being there was better; mine was around but was still a "sperm donor". He was abusive to my family and had more the opinion that because he "brought us into this world" he was God's gift to us. Mine could also cry on cue, it was very weird to see when it happened. I wonder though if having a dead beat father around is better than no father at all.
