Children and their Fathers...how exalted is that relationship?
Ok. I'm a single mother to twins...a boy and a girl...There father is not involved...he actually has no idea within is two of them or when they were born. anyway...my father is always getting on me on how kids need at hand father...and I agree...but to the level that he says I'm not sure. However, I have notice my son mimicking a lot of the the men in my family do...resembling when my brother came to visit...my son followed him everywhere...walked similar to him...and even tried to copy his mannerisms...now my son rarely see his uncle...and this was the first time since he was born...but it piqued my interests...I told my dad and he told me of course he would...he know he's a boy and he wants to do things he does...and he always adds on you be very selfish to not give them a father...I know I hold my pitfalls...but I know I'm an excellent mother. I want them to have it...but I can't force it upon someone. Well enough with the setting...I just want to know how other mother's/kids with out fathers get the impression about that father to child relationship? criticize if you must...but I would prefer answers from those who know what they are talking about.
I am doing just fine and my father is not regularly part of my life. I purely think of him as a sort of a distant stranger (I'm 15). I don't think your father should chastize you for not "giving" your children a father. In my case, I'm thrilled, healthy, and have a great education as I travel to an expensive all girls school. However, in some cases, have a partner, it makes life a lot easier; it take a lot of stress of of one person as one person does not hold to struggle to make ends meet. (Money was never the bag with my mother as she has a high paying opportunity.) If you are making a high salary, and are doing just fine, next you shouldn't need to rely on someone else to help you with your kids.

Okay I will criticize. You should not have have children being single. Now look where you are. As for a solution, well I give attention to there is one but only you can resolve it. There is no easy instrument. The only suggestion I have is either to reconcile beside the child's father or find a man that can be your friend/husband and father.
Hello,
I would say that it is important for your children to enjoy their father involved within their lives. It is also equally important for children to have their mothers involved as resourcefully. I have raised my now 5 year out-of-date son on my own for 4 1\2 years, and I do not believe that my son has had any less love than if his mother be around. Parents successfully raising children is really about loving them and being a great role model to them, isn't it? Fulfilling the involve for love in our children's lives is what parenting is really all about. I enjoy seen many children grow up with solitary one, and sometimes none, parents, but things worked out for them because there was someone in their lives that made them discern loved and cared for. Even I receive negative feedback from people roughly the absence of my son's mother, but I do not care what others say because my son is without blemish happy, and I love my son more than the world. I hope that my experience and comments help. Source(s): http://www.onefatherslove.com
ok here is the low down on what can develop if you go and tell the man who fathered them he has two kids he can move about to court and get partial custody of your children that means he will be able to own them anywhere from 8 hours a day up to 4 days a week with out you there so really consider hard about it because once you start it you can't stop it once they get involved they are the for ever Source(s): my daughter is going through it right immediately
I know some people raised by mothers alone and they are wonderful people. Of course it's pious if a child can have a great, involved father, but if their father is not like that then it's without a doubt possible for them to be raised very well.
In lingo of male role models, you have other male kith and kin members you say your kids are interested in. I suggest though the quality of their role models matters more than the gender.
I do reflect, unless the father was abusive or you can't get within touch, you should at least tell him they were born.
AJ give an excellent personal example. It's not about how much debt you have or how many homes you own. None of those can replace the negated left by a missing father.
For a boy, not having a good father medium not understanding well what it means to be a 'man', how to whip care of your responsibilities, protect your family and treat the women right in your relationship. When boys miss this, they usually turn to 'friends' who train them how to be players instead.
For a girl, not having a good father means she misses the one time contained by her life she'll have the benefit of a man who unconditionally loves and protects her without expecting something within return. When girls miss this, they often spend their life looking for a 'father figure' in guys who solitary want to use and abuse them.
Answers: I've gotten some insight into this through my husband. My husband's father disappeared when he was very young. What that did be really have him constantly seeking attention and acceptance from men. It sounds funny.. but growing up a lot of race thought he might of been gay because of this. It wasn't sexual attention and acceptance he was seeking.. but you don't other see young men or boys looking for this. It's more common in girls. Think give or take a few a young girl or teen who grew up without a father... looking to fill that role beside a man. That's how it played out with my husband. He's totally straight btw, lol. & while he had an excellent mother we have talk about how not having his dad around effected him excluding that too. (We had lots of time to talk about parenting roles when I be pregnant!) My husband feels badly that he doesn't know how to do 'man things' like fix a saloon or renovate a home... especially since his father was a mechanic. He felt like he missed out on greatly. I think it really effected his self-esteem and comfort around other people too. But next again... he was used to a father and then it was taken away childlike. That won't manifest itself quite the same... but that's all I really own to pull from.
Not that you asked for it... but I might offer some advice, lol. Try to do 'guy things' and coach him things a father might... like fishing, camping, fixing cars, doing drywall.. etc. It seems silly to try to merely fill those cliche male things... but it's always something my husband notice was different about him from the boys with dads around. There are camp, classes, programs, etc that can help teach some of this stuff if you aren't able to.. (I know I wouldn't be! lol)... Make sure he get plenty of interaction between himself and good men that you trust. It's important he feels comfortable around men and doesn't following try to seek acceptance from them. Just try to make him be aware of accepted by and comfortable with that gender. Anyways, hope this be helpful or interesting.. or something! Have a good 4th!
