Seriously, I dont know why the father of my kids that hates me so much would not call to talk to the kids each week. If he actually cared about his kids then he would at least try to be in their lives even if I am in the way. But I guess that is all that he is all about. I know that some fathers would actually die to talk to their children on the phones, even some fathers that would like to spend at least one hour with them. But because of living situations, Im here in NE and he is in AL, it makes it hard to travel back and forth. I was willing to meet half way though to make the exchange around father's day but yeah, that is just like one month away. And it is I guess too soon and they do not have the money for anything like that. Oh, but I dont have a family of five to take care of at this time, like he does; his wife wont get a job, she is just a stay at home wife that complains too much about how I am taking the time away from her hubby just because i want him to spend time with his kids. Well, his first two kids anyhow. She has two boys from a previus marriage and one with my ex. Dont know for certain if she is claiming enough child support for her boys but who knows. It use to be that she did not get a lot of support from her ex and then she was complaining about how much support I was getting. Ever since she stepped into my ex's life from day one she had been complaining about the things I was getting and my ex was listening to her. Heck she even complained about what i was getting back out of the divorce. Well, anyhow, I have had enough talking about the likes of her. All I ever asked for as the mother of my kids was for my ex to try and show some kind of involvement in the kids lives but even though we were having trouble talkn, he uses that as an excuse to not call to talk to the kids. I have even offered to have him chat on web cam with the kids or at least see them and he turns this down as well. I figure he will continue to do this for a very long time and the kids will be the only ones questioning their father when they get older. Of course, I will tell them the truth that their father decided that this is just a punishment for me being mean to him and well more or less his family. Oh, well...I have stood by my word though and I do not plan to seek full custody of the kids because i know that somewhere in my ex there is a good man that wants to be close to his kids. We shall see how things go from here I guess.
