Divorced Dads: Shattering the Myths

Werent you labeling them?

No, I was responding to a guy who was labeling them.

Well then my apologies. It seemed that someone who stated they missed their wife of 3 years deceased was being accused of "pity" party or so. My comment was that it would appear ot be more grieving than self pity, and an online forum is not the place to make the easiest discernment of which it is, but I would give the benefit of the doubt on widowhood being grievous, not self-pity. Thanks.

OK then. I said we were all sorry about his loss. As for his labeling of people who are discussing issues here, he just didn't get it right. Sure there are emotions involved, and I'm sure that divorced men grieve over the loss of their children to divorce just as children grieve over the loss of a parent to divorce. There are of course differences. Divorced fathers are in a situation something like watching their children die every day -- I mean, their children are in fact still alive and obviously if some changes are made they would be reunited with their children. At the same time, they're fighting massive government fraud and corruption. The government is waging war against them as part of the game to get away with it. Nothing about their situation suggests that it's appropriate to just get over it.

Then maybe it's time those divorced dads who feel this way take on some hard core personal responsibility from the outset to change things. They don't have to sit on the sidelines and "watch their children die every day" and look to the government. Sheesh.

I'm constantly amazed by the snide comments from arm chair quarterbacks, especially the illogic of most of them. They're fighting massive government corruption against a government that is waging war against them. The transformation to "they don't have to sit on the sidelines and look to government" must bewilder logicians the world over.

You don't have to be a logician to figure it out.

Why don't you explain what you mean?
