Fathers, when was the last time you: Wrestled with your kids? Sang to your kids? Read to your kids? Taught them hard lessons? Showed them discipline and mercy? Taught them a new skill? If you can’t even remember, what are you worth to your children except as a paycheck?

Replying to @TheBrometheus
Any idea how many dads are kept from their kids thanks to no-fault divorce statutes and the mother favoring family courts that came from them? Maybe instead of pompously lecturing dads you should join the fight for Family Court reform?

2/Joint custody often in name only; ex wants father completely out of her life, & sometimes kids' lives too. Will sabotage. No penalty 4 ignoring court orders. I don't have solution. Many men withdraw from own children's lives bc can't emotionally deal w/half-way dad status.

It’s a real evil and it destroys fathers as well as children. But suffering is no excuse to withdraw. There is always something to be done, even if that means you write monthly letters, seal them up, and wait for the kid’s 18th birthday to deliver a lifetime of love and attention
