Just because I don't pay any child support, is that any reason to snub me on Father's Day year after year?
I get so tired of never getting a card or a gift. I called my ex-wife to have her talk to the kids about this, but her only response was, "They don't make deadbeat dad Father's Day cards." She then yelled at me to get help for my drinking, which really hurt because I had a bad hangover, and her yelling over the phone into my ear about knocked me over. Why should I be snubbed by my kids year after year? The new husband my wife has is some nerdy accountant or something, and the kids are even calling HIM dad. He is nowhere near as handsome as I am, so I just don't get it.

Oh, so Mister CPA provides for them and gives them stability...whoop dee frickin' do! Well, those ingrates you call your "children" need to be reminded that it was YOUR manload that gave them life, not the dork's, who incidentally, probably can't even get it up without fantasizing about budget reports, profit and loss statements, fixed assets and corporate tax returns.

Oh yeah youy tell the truth and nothing but the truth. But what you don't do is tell the truth the WHOLE truth and nothing but the truth.
Thus you have neglected to mention that the last time you saw the kids was on little BillyBob's 12th birthday.You arrived at 8am, with a half empty carton of Bud, dribbling all over the "card" you had for him. Which turned out to be your illegible scrawl on the back of your bus ticket, delivering the touching message "Don't let the b@star@rds get you down kid"
And by the time you left 20 mins later the kids piggy banks had all been emptied and you'd found where I had his wrapped gifts hidden. So his new Nike basketball shoes were missing from the box, and you'd smuggled his Ipod, Laptop and Phone out in your empty beer carton.
We found all of those items the next day...in the window the the local Pawn Brokers.And there was dear old daddy, lying unconscious in the gutter outside the Pink Pussycat Light Bondage And Pool Parlour, sick running out the corner of your mouth, used condoms littering the ground around you an almost empty quart bottle of bourbon still clutched, vicelike in your arms and a total of 75 cents in your hip pocket...all that was left of your son's entire birthday haul after your 12 hour bender at his expense.

"Dead Beat Dad" is a COMPLIMENTARY term for what you are.

I didn't send my dad fathers day cards because he just wasn't there for us like you he didn't help financially but the main thing was that he just didn't behave like a dad to us, he would go ages without calling and seeing us. When i was at school when people talked about making cards i just thought i didn't really have one. When he did finally make an effort to see me he then gave me lectures and tried to get me to change the way i dressed i just wanted to be accepted as i was. Parents are supposed to be there for moral support give you respect for who you are and scold you from time to time. Mums try to protect the kids and sometimes they do influence them with biast opinions but maybe you need to look at your relationship with them first and always always be civil to the mum keeping them happy can mean a lot for your access to them

I'm sorry d00d
There are so MANY broken homes, dysfunctional "families"
ETC .....
Unfortunately stuff happens, in this case the kids get along with the
step-dad and really there isn't anything you can do about it.
Get over it, there was a game played, and you lost. Sorry about that.
Move on, find yourself a relationship and live your life,
You don't need to keep beating your head against a wall!

That fuсking whore!!! I always said that she wasn't good enough for you. She was never supportive of your lifelong quest to win the Beer Drinking Championship Belt. Where was that fuсking whore when you needed bail money after that DWI when you were rushing to the hospital for the birth of your second child? And then she complained that you didn't have a job but wouldn't get a license and a job so she could help out with the bills or anything. She's the one with no ambition if you ask me. Fuсk her!

I've seen this so many times, and it breaks my heart every time. She has poisoned your kids against you, which is really a shame since there really is no need to draw them into what is essentially leftover divorce drama.
What you've gotta do is intercept your kids at the school (or bus stop if that restraining order is still in effect) and remind them who their real dad is.

A father is someone who cares for his family. If you are purchasing alcohol and things for yourself before giving the money to support your children, you are being selfish and uncaring. Your children have realized the man they call "dad" is spending more time with them, which is what matters to them. Try giving up a little of your spare time to spend with your children and watch how things change.

If you'll be my daddy I'd give you a present every single day!

Your the father step up! You sound just like mine. He expects a fathers day call and he wont even see me all year. Get your act together and go to A.A. Or else your kids will probably end up like me, hoping I forget him more and more every year.
