[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Because the Mom makes it so difficult on him and causes so much drama. She engages in parental alienation to turn the kid against him anyway and he’s just fighting a losing battle until he finally gives up. [/quote]
So, he is letting his ex dictate his relationship with his own kids.  He is a loser. No wonder she divorced him.

IMO, most men are selfish and can't deal with being a parent, taking care of himself and his own home all at once. They probably hardly took care of the kids and did any house chores when they were married, and that's partly why the wife couldn't stand him and wanted a divorce.

And in case someone thinks I'm projecting my own life, no, DH and I are married, 20 years, and he does most of the cooking and grocery shopping.  But, I base my opinion on what I'm seeing in the lives of people I know, and dcum, and the fact that statistics show that women are the default parent, even if they work.

If they couldn't hack being an engaged parent while married, not sure why people would think he would be an engaged parent after getting a divorce.[/quote]
