My son's dad doesnt wanna be a dad...
Ok so I'm 19 and I have a 3 year old son and me and his dad broke up about
2 months after my son was born....well his dad doesnt wanna be a dad he
called us last year before Christmas and told my son (who was 2 at the
time)that he would come down and spend Chritmas with him well Christmas
came around and no dad...my son spent his 2nd Christmas the whole time
crying and it broke my heart...The only dad my son has now is my fiance and
I'm glad he is stepping up even though he isnt his real dad but I also want
my son to know his real dad....what should I do??

I go through the same thing with my 2 year old. His dad says he wants to be there but then he will dissapear for 6 months at a time. All I can say it let him do his thing if he doesn't want to be there then its his loss. I started preparing for the fact that my sons dad would not want to be there for him. when he was there I took photo's of them together so I could try to explain when my son is older that his dad did care but isn't in a good place and can't see him all the time. I have taken any gift my son has ever gotten from him and put it asideso when he is older he can see that his dad did care at some point. There really isn't anything else you can do, and as for him making promises and breaking them next time don't tell your kid that he is coming that way if he doesn't then its no big deal but if he does it wil be a good surprize for your child. Good luck sweetheart
