My Dad died in my arms of a massive heart attack when I was 15 years old at the end of the Eagles Cardinals Football game. Talk about a life changing experience. I had to grow up real quick. I was all of a sudden the man of the house. My Mother NEVER went out with another man the rest of her life. I feel like she gave up her life for me as I was her only child. She recently passed away and the last few years were very hard. I took care of her alone. I gave up my life as she did hers and she was able to pass away with me here in her own home. May God Bless her and my Father up in heaven!!!!

I was in my son's life till he was 6.5 years old. My ex found someone on Facebook that she was infatuated with. I tried to work on the relationship but she was just done and filed for divorce and and took out a PFA against me because her attorney said it would strengthen her claim to have primary custody. I never even hit her once, called her abusive names, or cheated on her once during the 20 years we were together. I haven't been allowed to see my son in 3 years nor have I heard from him. He is now 10 and I feel empty inside. If men are just as important in raising a child then why do they get the children 93% of the time. Did you know that men commit suicide 300% more than women and I believe it's because they lose everything in divorce and I know how that feels.

Lost him 5 years ago to cancer. I miss him every single day. He was born to be a dad. The thing is, he grew up without one.

My own journey to higher success and education is really just starting at 22, and I know folks my age who did it far earlier. I know much more of what I want though, and I guess I have some natural or learned tendencies that have allowed me to father both myself and others. Here’s to fatherhood, and people not skipping out on that. In truth, it infuriates me deep inside when I see or know that someone is being a bad father. It hurts, no child in my mind deserves that. I know though that every day there’s some shit, and good fathers get taken away.

My dad was in and out of my life due to alcoholism and drug addiction. And unfortunately lost his battle with his diseases on the morning of my 20th birthday. But what I do remember of him is having this contagious, glowing spirit. Help people that need it y’all! That’s not who they truly are. I wish I would’ve helped him more instead of chalking off his addictions as selfishness.

I am grateful for all the positive comments however, for those saying "have a rematch" or "hit him when you are older" i do not think that punching him in the future or ending this story with violence is the best way. we are all on this earth to develop ourselves as we grow each day and get wiser, if his decision was to kick me in the back and making me hit the floor and breaking my nose. Hey that's all his energy. Not mine. I live each day trying to improve myself and not look back at the past and let things like this stop me from doing what I have to do in life once again thank you all! and have a blessed day.

A good dad is rare because men are human, but they have to take responsibility for the entire family. That's a huge responsibility, and life isn't fair so they may not have the opportunities to succeed easily. At the same time, women and feminists go out of their way to shit all over men. Don't point the finger at dads. Examine moms a little closer instead. The epidemic of fatherless children is due to women and feminism.

My dad was always working. He ran his own private optometric business. I begged him to give me one day for just me. The first day of deer season. I said in January just put a big red X on this day on November. He refused/ignored/dismissed my request. Well as the father of 5 children now myself I have focused on being open, emotionally available, interested in their lives and their hobbies. As a result of deciding to be different I have a great work life balance and a great relationship with my children. A bad day can be made a great day just hanging with one of my kids being nothing more special than just plain old Dad…and I love it. I made sure my sons knew and saw how I treated their sisters and their mother. Made sure my daughters saw that also so they would demand the same respect I gave their momma. So far all the effort to be different has given vastly different outcomes x 5.

I have a similar upbringing as Joe did - I only knew my dad up until I was about 4 years old. Saw him in prison when I was 18 (he was always in and out of prisons) and once more a year later. That's it. He was more like some stranger that shared my DNA. Like the other guy, my mom also got really upset when I asked about him. But I understand she was coming from a place of hurt and didn't want the horrible person my dad was to have an influence on me. But I want to say this to those young ones that are reading this and also don't have dads in their lives. You may have trust issues with other guy friends or even women and you may have a small inner circle and are fiercely loyal (seems a common denominator among guys that grew up with no dad) but you can become great fathers in spite of all that. What the absence of my dad taught me was "When I grow up and become a father, I now know what not to do. I will make sure I am there for my kid." My daughter is now 18, in college, has a boyfriend, a job and is an awesome, wise, loving human being. The circle of ignorance ended with me. It is a LIE that you become your parents or if someone says "I'm like that because my father was like that." a huge lie. I was always there for my daughter and we have an incredibly close relationship, So, if you are younger and not yet a father you too can break the circle of ignorance and forge something new. Don't let a bad dad (or mom) teach you how to be. Find your own path.

If i ever make it out of this and father a child one day, i will NOT let my child suffer like i did and still am every day. You really have to be a selfish man to abandon your child because let me say from experience, that child will struggle a lot in life because of your selfish decision.

I feel for these guys, I'm cut from the same cloth. I feel like I had to become me own father figure. All the things I know now about how to be a man I had to learn on my own. It was very lonely. I want to have a child one day to give them that love I didn't have and to pass on the things I've learned...it shouldn't be so hard to grow up for everyone.

My parents divorced when I was about 11 or 12. Said that I wanted to live with my dad, the courts "awarded" me to my mother during the custody battle. Lost contact with my dad soon after that, he died of cancer when i was 19, did not even know he had cancer. I was a latch key kid raised by my mother who worked as a receptionist in a dental office. Have an older sister. I turn 50 in a couple of days, never married although I live with a woman who has 2 kids in their late 20's early 30's. That marriage and divorce was a Sh*t show. I had / have (?) major trust issues. Missed having a male presence in my life growing up with an older sister and mother. It shaped me, and to this day I find myself somewhat bitter about what I was dragged through by two "adults" in that sh*t show marriage. I went though a depression from about the age of 24 to 31. Missed a lot opportunities...relationship and career wise. To late for me to have children and who knows if I would even be a good dad...anyway, don't take things for granted...Love...

I am also a victim of an NPD parent. I am sorry.
