[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I had an awesome Dad growing up love him very much. Never argued with my Mom was loving to her and us. Never had any personal issues, no cheating, no selfishness, it was all about providing for the family and spending all the time he could with family.

Unfortunately, I married what I saw was someone like him but turns out he is the clear opposite and regret it every day. I do my best to have my kids spend time with my parents to see an example of a loving husband and father via my Dad.[/quote]

And you are fortunate to have a loving father now who can be a source of support for you as you navigate a less than ideal marriage. And your children have a loving grandfather who actually wants to spend time with your kids and who is a good influence and presence in their lives who can mediate somewhat the negatives of their own father.

Seriously, those of you with great dads have NO IDEA what it is like to go without that. You will never understand what it is like to have father who has zero interest in you as a human being, shows no care for your mother, expects you to see e him and meet his emotional needs while offering nothing to you even when you are a small child.

Even after your father is dead, you will get more out of your relationship with him than I get out of my father as he lives. You simply have no idea.[/quote]
