If you’re a bad parent, stay away from me.

I don't post rants like this often but it’s just been one of those days. Where everything seems to be getting on my nerves and for one reason or another something just pushes you over the edge. Today it’s guys who are bad fathers.

Seriously, how hard is it for you to be there for your kids and family? I’m not talking about deadbeat fathers, or fathers who don’t live with their children; I’m talking about those fathers who live at home with their family but who will go out of their way to not have to be home to spend time with them.

You know the type. The ones who always have an excuse to come home late. The ones who always has a reason why they can't make it to a family event or your kids party or sporting event. The guys who would rather sit at the office playing on the computer or just finding busy work to do while their family wait at Disneyland for them to show up and are told "just 5 more minuets then I'm leaving" every time they call.

Don't they realize the example they are giving to their kids? Don't they realize the pain you are causing the kids who just want to see their father, and the stress on his wife having to always cover for him?

This is just something I don't understand. If you don't want to be in a family then divorce and leave or man up and be a damn father!
