[quote=Anonymous]My H and i come from a culture where dads are far less involved with their kids than in the US (in these days). By those standards he was an ok dad, but also I was too blinded by a “need” to have a family (also cultural). 
He is one of those people who are too self absorbed to notice what is going on with other people. He doesn’t notice if child ate his dinner or left most of it on the plate, nor does he care much. He doesn’t make sure child eats fruit and veggies; he has never been to a single dr appt without me also there (which was when child was a baby), not to a single school meeting. He does with child what he wants to do (or considers necessary), which is mostly videogames, sending him to shower at night and sending him to bed (but not making sure he doesn’t sneak in a book to bed), and taking him to a weekend class. The other aspects are just not on his radar. He isn’t neglectful but why would the child benefit from 50/50? How? He doesn’t like going places with dad. Yet, H will want 50/50, only to then bail out of half of it, yet paying as in 50/50. I will prob let him do it just to avoid the fight, or maybe agree to CS/alimony being reduced if he gives up custody. [/quote]
