hey babydoll, I too have a father who has never had anything to do with me. He tried to tell me what to do and how to live when I finally was reunited with him at 15 years old. Well I am now 24 years old, and he still disses me, my family, and even my son. Some men are just not willing to be a part of some of their childrens lives, but somehow it seems that they aknowledge their kids by other mothers. It has NOTHING to do with you, and you may not understand that today, but someday real soon, when you are a grown woman with your own children, you will. And then you will be able to forgive him and go on to live a happy life without him. We need our fathers when we are growing up, and girls like us miss not being "daddy's little girl" and all of those things that seem right. But you dont have to worry babydoll, because I am telling you right now, growing up a female with no LOVING father not only forced me to be stronger, it made me love my mom that much more. Because today with a family of my own, I cannot begin to imagine how she did it on her own. And I feel sorry for him, will he ever come around? Who knows. Maybe someday. Its been 24 years and his attitude has not changed. But today I have a whole beautiful life to live and a wonderful family to enjoy, and I never doubt their love for me. And you have this too. Forgive him and then you will begin to be at peace.
