You Ain't My Dad (eBook, ePUB)

Beschreibung

I started this journey around 2001, to write a book about the role that fathers did not play or could not play but wanted to play in the lives of their offspring. However, due to internal factors and external factors, fathers did not meet the expectations of society, nor their childs or of their own. This book is not designed to be an outlet for men to berate women about them having to pay child support but, more about the experiences men go through from their lenses. I want to reiterate the point that this is not an attempt to influence the courts or the court of public opinion to alleviate the males responsibility of his financial obligations. I have witnessed firsthand the struggle of single mothers and the things they have to endure. However, there are elements out there that want to portray men as the culprit of some sort of dark evil element that is causing the family dynamic to be annihilated. There are facets involved in the complexities of raising a family; unfortunately, the men roles are vanishing. There are systems designed to alter the natural function that the fathers play in their children lives.This book will attempt to input a collage of ideas from the author to paint the picture of the challenges fatherless fathers encounters in their pursuit to be fathers.
