[QUOTE="klmno, post: 325886, member: 3699"] I think it probably has made a difference in your all's kids' lives that they have had a father figure. And, the situation is a little different if the bio-father is close by. difficult child's father is out of state and although, I know I could get to him in 6 hours, to difficult child he is still "far away" and inaccessible. difficult child knows the general area but is still young enough to view it as "far away" because we don't visit that area. I do think difficult child had a point though when he told me earlier this year that if he had to "do his time" for his illegal activity and teen boys in Department of Juvenile Justice had to own up to their kids, then his father should be held accountable and not get to walk away, too. He wasn't saying he would do something to his father- he was saying this when telling me he wanted me to do whatever I could to help dss find him- so dsss and the legal authorities could hold him accountable. I told him they might not be able to get to him- I just wasn't sure. That's when he told me if they didn't, he would look for him when he became an adult and get the CS from him and give it to me. LOL! Really, he wasn't threatening to kill him or anything- I was glad to see him realizing that the reflection is on his father, not on himsellf. [/QUOTE]
