Don't understand in Michigan?
by Jeff Carter
I don't understand? I am a dad of two great kids. I was married. I watched them both come into this world and my heart just swelled for the love of these two. I thought of all the things I would do for them to grow with them. I was out to be the best daddy in the world. I am not a father, I am a dad. Because I believe being in their lives. I have a girl that is two years older than her brother. Anyway as it seemed life was going ok, my wife then was seeing someone else and planned someway to leave me. I spent most of the time with the kids then. Don't get me wrong she still is a good mother but I also am a good dad. Well she planned this behind my back, left me and ended up with this guy and my kids. I do get to see them and I pay a lot in child support. They still must be in my life no matter how much I have to pay. I would rather spend the money on them myself that I earn than never knowing really where it goes to. I have trouble with the finances now just getting by and having what my kids need when they are with me. The good thing is my kids and myself are even closer now. I have always taught my children to share but when it comes to court they don't see it that way. Yes, I am divorced but it feels like I am divorced from my kids as well. I thought this was suppose to be about the kids? Why can't my kids still get to share both parents? That would be less painful for them. They need both parents. A good mother and a good dad. Not a step father their real dad. Just because I did not give birth to them should not mean I should not have rights to them as well. I still have great love for them. I won't run! I won't go away! I won't give up! My kids are worth it to see a real dad. Help me to change these laws. How do we do it? Our voice needs to be heard soon. My email address is h_bravata@yahoo.com |
