Sorry to hear that.
Have you listened to his side of the story though?
Blokes get a really rough deal post separation.
Give him a chance.
He's had lots of opportunities over the years: I'm 46!
Have heard his story. He was mean to me Ma & treated her bad: no excuses.
In this case, he didn't get a rough deal, she did. He walked away from the marriage with a new, younger woman, leaving me Mum struggling with 3 young kids on her own. Didn't pay a penny.
Since number 2, he's walked away and he's onto number 3, and she's younger still.
He's intellectual and with my kids, I tried to forgive him when they were young.
But when they got older I thought he'd take an interest and read books to them or play card games or crib.
But who was I trying to kid? He didn't do a great deal of that with me, why should he bother with them?
