I kinda went through the same thing except for my father didn't remarry and have kids, as a matter of fact he never even looked for us. This is the promise I've made myself. If ever me and my wife need to go our seperate ways. I will never divorce my children. They are my life. Although I am a father and can understand where the mother in this article is coming from.

I have 3 children that I am now raising on my own My ex husband after 15 yrs of marriage leaves us for a new woman. I am ok with that it happens and people over time have there issue but what really make me upset it that it seems when they divorce the spouse the children are included. It has been 4 years since this all has happen I was a stay at home mom who depended on him for support, my children and I lost our home it went into foreclosure because he thought of him self more than his children and refuse to pay for the home it was in his name and there was really nothing I could do. I had to find a job in an area that was closing up factory faster than you could move and on top of that I had not worked for 15 years I had no money nothing but my family and 3 children that I loved more than anything in this world. I promised my children that I was going to make everything ok again. I found us a house, and work after a year of working I went back to school for my associate degree in business administration. one year after my divorce my ex husband marries that woman and has a child two month after that child is born he takes me to court wanting visitation with his children which he had along. They now have to go visit there father and stepmother out of state 3 times a year and they dont really want to but my children have in there heads if they dont go the courts will put there mother in jail. I wonder about our system and how it works or who it works for they say its for the children and what's best but do they really care about our children like parents do. I have seen my children at very young age go through hell because of a parent who did not give a damn about anything but him self and his pleasure., my middle daughter tried to commit suicide has been in and out of therapy just to understand why this was happening to her. I have went hungry just so my children could eat, I have sold everything I had to put that food on the table I slept on the floor so they could have there own rooms my children and I have seen hard times and struggle we have over come most of them at this time. We have turned to the lord in these hard times and with pray and our faith I know we are better off now than before. My ex would never give up any of his possession for his children they see there daddy has a new house and 4 tv's, computer, he brags about how great his life is and what he has I see him as a miserable man who has nothing but things I have more with my children and family than he will ever have in those things we have love, commitment, understanding, our faith in god, and most importantly we have each other. I never thought I would ever be happy again or that I would see my children laugh and smile which is a big deal when all I saw for years was tears. I have the greatest gift in life and it sits across from me every night at dinner my children. I am one of those parents I just read in your blog.
