		<description>Hi,

Im in a very similair situation and Im worried for the 12 year old involved...hes very emotionally all over the place and I completely understand that but are there any studies on the long term effects of children, esp boys, abandoned by their mothers? shes still in his life and very emtionally and in past physically abusive...im doing my best to help but sometimes I feel so powerless, if anyone can offer any help Id so truly appreciate it

Thank you,

God Bless

		<description>SasaK - Unless you personally experience raising a child that has been scarred by their selfish, unreliable bio parent, I don&#039;t think you can fully understand.   As far as judging....whatever..I&#039;m simply stating what I have witnessed over the last several years.  This silly woman didn&#039;t want to raise her own child but acted a fool while I raised her.  Believe me it doesn&#039;t make me &quot;feel good&quot; that Nancy was/is a self absorbed, greedy, unloving &quot;parent&quot;...it saddens me that my step-daughter is subjected to her never ending drama and neglect.</description>

		<description>How incredibly judgemental some people are. It sounds to me as if &#039;Nancy&#039; wasn&#039;t in a terribly good place. Of course, this doesn&#039;t make it &#039;okay&#039; for her to screw up her child -- but life affects us all in different ways, and i think some of you self-righteous, holier-than-thou numbskulls could do with opening your minds a little more and trying a little forgiveness and understanding. I get the feeling that some of you are enjoying the bitching a little too much -- could it be because it makes YOU feel validated, secure, possibly a tad smug? It&#039;s a good feeling, isn&#039;t it? 

Just get on with bringing up the child, as you have chosen to, and stop moaning.</description>

		<description>@Karen -  I imagine it is quite difficult for a child to grow up under these circumstances.  We are progressing nicely.  Thanks for the kind words.</description>

		<description>I was like your step daughter too...I hate to think of the fallout in my present relationships and how my mother&#039;s unreliablae and erratic behavior made me the person I am today...But my stepmother was my greatest advocate and I will always be thankful for that...
Just stay consistently loving and when she&#039;s 30, like me, she&#039;ll realise that you were true and loving and hopefully will be open enough to return all that love she might not be so capable of now...</description>

		<description>for one thing there is nothing wrong with  children being brought up by their fathers, indeed this is the norm in most of the world. Without a father, the children become damage emotionally and it leads to severe discpline problems later on. Also it causes depresssion and other factors should as low confidence and the inabilty to relate to other people. women routinely abdduct their children from their fathers in the west and cry foul and make false accusations and stop the father from seeing the kids. Plus they ripp the guy off by taking all his salary off him so he cannot live, see the kids or start a new life. The courts and the law/society are on the side of the mother, so they do everything in their power to help her, screw the kids its the mother they want to help. If a  father wants to get his kids back, the law says get stuffed. The asumption that  a mother can alone look after kids is rubbish and flawed,  yeah i bet you give me anedotal evidence but that just want it is rubbish. Women wth kids are selfish, all in it for the money and could not careless about the welfare of the children. They just want to alienate the kids from the father and keep the welfare checks for themselves and screw the the kids over. All of this is legalise theft. 


So please do not say oh its a shame if Mothers let fathers look after the kids. Its about time too, women cannot do it on their own. Of course its a natuaral for a mother to see her kids, but in my view  they are not fit to look after them on their own. 

best wishes</description>

		<description>I don&#039;t understand that if they don&#039;t want the kid why do they go on to have more. Why are their moral values so high that they can&#039;t have a abortion but yet their moral values don&#039;t include raising your own child.</description>

		<description>Welcome Kevin,

I&#039;m sorry to hear your experiencing this.  I also know women that have chosen to abandon their children - it&#039;s quite sad, especially for the kids.  They are blessed to have you step in and be a caring father to them.

Some people are not meant to be parents.  I just wish they&#039;d realize it before they start procreating.</description>
