- You mean it is "mature" for me to sit back and let someone take away
- my relationship with my kids? You are either the most profoundly
- stupid creature on the face of this planet or a master at flame-bait.
- Are you a snot-nosed freshman at some school?
-
- My children are the greatest source of joy and satisfaction in my
- relatively joyous and satisfying life. I believe most fathers feel
- the same way...divorced or not (I am). Surely circumstances occur
- where a dismissal of a noncustodial parents obligations and rights
- is appropriate, but you suggest that it be mandatory? Rarely
- does someone say something on the net that leaves me speechless
- like this....surely you jest! Either way, fuck you, stupid ass.
-
- I would surely and with great determination kill to keep someone
- from destroying my relationship with my children if it was clear
- that alternatives no longer existed.
