[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP you probably know lots of men like Jim and have no idea. My husband is active duty and I'd say about 25% of the men we know have abandoned children. By abandoned I mean they've made the conscious decision to have no relationship whatsoever to a child or children from a previous relationship. Not a money or time thing. [/quote] I should add - all of these men are currently raising children too, but with their current wives. The wives also support their decision to not have a relationship with their other children.[/quote] And yeah this happens in DCUM-land/UMC circles, too. You see a loving husband and dad with a happy family and an expensive house and have no idea from the surface (unless you know the family well) he has another child he abandoned. I knew of several families like this growing up in a nice neighborhood.[/quote] We know two families just in our neighborhood like this. In both cases, the fathers claim the ex wife is “crazy” and didn’t want the dads seeing the children. I’m pretty sure both pay child support. It’s just wild because both families are living a picturesque UMC life with all the trappings and I don’t think the other kids are. In one family the youngest of the two children that got left behind is only two years older than his oldest child with current wife. In that case I strongly suspect current wife was the AP. [/quote]
