Thank you Twink, when my H first left my daughter was about 11 years old. He use to go to her school things and events. But once he left the few things that she would have going on, he would miss. I think out of her 5 band concerts she had in middle school, he only went to one and showed up late. She played a beautiful flute solo once and he missed it. My son of course he hardly misses anything with him when it comes to the sports events. I dont feel like he has a close relationship with either of our kids. Since all this started he has been short tempered with the kids and cusses at them. I dont like it, but he does it anyway. Its hard to get him to do anything with them at all. He sent me to buy our son a tube for his bike one day, he fixed one and wouldnt fix the other bike, told my son if he wanted that one fixed he should go figure it out himself! He is only 9, I would have a hard time doing it! I took my son by the hand and said lets go figure it out! We started working on the bike, I guess H felt bad and then he went out there to do it. He just has little interest with them. The most they get is the occasionally wrestling in the floor and cutting up until someone ends up getting hurt.
Wow, the more I really think about the R he has with them, the sadder I get.
