>>10385593I feel like you’re just baiting at this point and this is the last time I’m gonna talk about this because it’s gone so off topic, but when we first got together I was excited and wanted to be a parent to her kids but they showed time and time for several years that no matter what I did they just don’t care about me. I was actually in my dark ages, so I honestly didn’t have a lot going on and would devote most of my free time after work to spending time with all of them as a family. Their dad is manipulative to say the least and lives with his parents but they would rather be with him because he just lets them stay up all night, miss school whenever they wanna play sick, and even check them out. We got a letter that they were both absent too many days and that a truancy officer would have to look into it if they missed any more days. They will never see me as a father and that’s why I eventually just stopped trying to go the extra mile, I do still try to be nice to them and help them with things, but at the end of the day I know they’ll never see me as their father. I get that my previous posts made it seem worse, but I’ve just had a long day and haven’t gotten to sleep yet so I’m a little on edge.
