[QUOTE="allydem, post: 463032, member: 12714"] My ex walked out of his kids' lives 13 yrs ago because he couldn't handle the responsibility of being a father. He was newly married at the time, and it didn't take a second thought when his new wife, a social worker who abandoned her own kids, suggested he leave his own kids to mom to raise. He believed if he walked back into his kids' lives when they turned 18, they'd take him back. By that time, he wouldn't have to "parent" them anymore as they were grown up. Well, it worked for my son, but my daughter who is now 18 would rather see him 6 feet under than at our doorstep trying to make ammends. Despite the fact that I have tried numerous times to inform him of his son's actions, he has never responded to my emails, but instead, had slagged me to my son, claiming that I'm only trying to create a wedge between them. I even mailed my son's marajuana pipe to his house as proof that his precious innocent son is into drugs. No reply. He too is ADHD, but refuses to believe the condition exists. I really feel like I'm caught between a hard place and a rock here. [/QUOTE]
