I am seeking child support, I filed all the nesccesary paperwork, but it takes time and if he is not cooperating then we never see a dollar. Most people you think you file and you automatically get...

@Kathleen Hogg, I dont bad mouth him, I catch myself talking sh*t when I am on the phone with a friend and I walk out of the room so they are not within ear shot or I have them leave the room. None...

I'm so sorry you're going through this. Your kids are at a tough age because they aren't old enough to truly understand what happened or decide whether they want him in their lives, but it also places you in a tough position. Have you thought abou...

You don't list how old your kids are, but in the picture, they look pretty small. There is an excellent book - Was It the Chocolate Pudding? A Story for Little Kids About Divorce, by Sandra Levins. This book can help kids address some of the conce...

I am in a simular situation and I let it all go. I feel as long as you feel good about the healthy life you are creating for your children they will feel good. When they are old enough they will ask and you can tell them. Just make sure YOU feel g...

I think it's the natural way of things. All things fade. Kids are busy lil rambunctious things, and tend to be fickle, and not form those long lasting bonds immediately, or at least, they can move on easily. Sam

My kid's dad is overseas and rarely makes an effort. I have found doing Skype on camera helps, but mostly I've tried to explain that it is a problem with their dad, not them. Hard to do without sounding negative about their dad, but I figure the m...

I had that type of "father" as well. Here's what I know... it's not your responsibility to make sure he sees the kids. It's his responsibility. It's your responsibility to never say bad things about him and to help your kids feel loved and support...

Hey I feel for you, I am in exactly the same situation. My kids are 12 and 13. Their mum left us six months ago. We live in the same city but their mum rarely visits or calls now. I was giving her money to take out the kids but I stopped as it bec...

Hi, I think there is lots of good advice here about not being negative about him in front of the children. From someone who went throuh this as a child, I never forgot my dad always thought of him even though conversation dried up about him. I wou...

All you can really do is love them, and let them know every single day that they are special. Never ever say anything bad about their father in front of them, he is as others have said "half of who they are". If they ask, let them talk to him, it ...

I would say give him a call but sounds like he's a dead beat dad. Why aren't u seeking child support? My ex and I put all things aside for the sake of our son. We compromised for his good. good luck its not easy

Do you have a Twitter account? What do you tweet about?

I tweet about my fight with breast cancer and becoming a mom for the first time. I have been trying to find more people to follow me so that I can spread awareness:
