Hi Treece, I have no idea how they can neglect their kids but so so many do. Please do not feel it's just your H. Compared to many yours does have quite a lot of contact I think. That doesn't help comparing I know but it helps us to feel less like the only one whose H's have done this. Mine must be the old time winner in that in the 8 years since he left he has actually seen them once, my d for the first time nearly 2 years ago! My sons about 5 years ago. No nothing! He was a devoted father I will never know what happened but I no longer even try to get him to see or contact them I gave it up many years ago. I just get on with my life. Take care.
