[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Dad had a complete separate family. I learned in 3rd grade. It did taint how I looked at him, but the real loser in my eyes is my mom who flipped out and didn't try to save her marriage. As a result, my full sibling and I grew up in poverty while the halfs got a pretty cushy upbringing AND our dad. My mom also has spent the last three decades trashing my dad and his mistress.[/quote]

You blame your mom for not just dealing with his second family? It is your dad's fault. He is the one who made the choice to have an affair, not pay child support, or not see you. And before you say your mom wouldn't let him see you, he could've gone to court. He could have had the visitation schedule enforced. Your dad just did not want to deal with you. A good father would have made an effort to have a relationship with his children.[/quote]

A good mother wouldn't keep her children from their father. [/quote]

Unless the father proved to be a terrible influence.[/quote]
