Old children tossed aside

It never ceases to amaze me how someone can have a child and then decide when they met another partner, they can simply allow their child to fade away out of their lives. You see them everyday for years then one day things change. When your visitation schedule kicks in, instead of wanting to spend every moment with their child, they seem to find every excuse to not come and see their child. Then within a year, it seems your child is out of their lives.

It is hard enough for children to understand divorce or breakups when they realize their parents are not together. But there is no reason to simply divorce or breakup from your children. Yes, sometimes dealing with your ex-partner is difficult, and dealing with your new partners gripes about seeing your ex, but get over it. Your children are all that matter. They should make you want to overcome the battles. Find someone to be the person to pickup your children, or maybe arrange for them to be dropped off at a relatives house.

Do something for your children ... do not forget them.

John Bochu this especially means you.
