[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My dad was mostly a waste of time, very inept at fathering, I certainly saw this more clearly as an adult and have been very fortunate to have married a man who has been a great dad to our kids.

Knowing my own dad's history, meeting my grandfather briefly once, and learning about my dad's childhood in which he lost his mother at about age 10 and was raised by his own very inept father, gave me a little more understanding of what his problems were.  [b]Still, I'm glad he died when I was in my 20s, I wouldn't have wanted him involved in my children's lives.[/b]

My mother was awesome though and I am very grateful to her for everything she ever did for me or meant to me.[/quote]

That is a jaw dropping level of callousness. Just for being “inept” and suffering his own traumatic childhood? How are you so sure that you don’t have your own weaknesses that could be harshly judged? It isn’t a requirement to be perfect in order to deserve love and compassion from your own family.[/quote]

If I gave more details about my father you would understand.  Therefore I forgive you for being so nasty to someone you don't know at all for no good reason.  BTW all three of my siblings felt the same way when he died.[/quote]
