What is your problem with a blogger posting under the blogger site on FR? Isn’t that what it’s for??

Ummm.. I WAS in a married relationship for 7 years before my ex decided she would rather be a Party-Girl than a mother.

I raised my 2 kids from age 2 and 6 until they graduated HS and beyond with zero help.

The women I dated usually had kids of their own and the thought of adding more to the mix simply didn’t appeal to me.

that, and I reluctantly admit that the part about diet, exercise and too many beers actually did play a part.

But my kids turned out fine. My son works with me in the family business and my daughter is finally finishing her zoology degree

Since Jan. 16, 2018 you’ve posted 23 articles of yours on FR
all with just an excerpt trying to draw hits to your blog. How’s
it working out?

I became a single dad with 2 young daughters (4 and 1) when my wife, literally the-girl-next-door, lost a battle to breast cancer.

Still on this side of the grass after 3+ decades...but never found another girl-next-door. I did have a couple of disappointments that, in looking back, would have been a disaster - I think that’s called dodging a bullet.

I will say I was an all-star athlete who got straight A’s so always have stayed in shape and a Type-A driven person with constant goals to achieve that certainly helped to keep me breathing and engaged with life.

Finally, my Christian faith is at my core and I’ve leaned on it during some very challenging times - it truly is my inner strength.

Why assume that there was no relationship before becoming a single father.

For starters, single fathers who were not in a relationship willingly take on single parenting because the want the child and want to raise the child. They accept the responsibility that the mother will not or cannot take on.

Almost all single fathers I’ve known were married and became the single responsible parent when their wives died or dumped him and the kid(s).

In one case years ago a lieutenant in my squadron had his wife leave him and his son for drug use and he fought tooth and nail and spent a great deal of money to gain custody. He had a promising career and had just been promoted when the AF wanted to send him remote. Because he was an only child and his parents were deceased, he would have had to hand custody back to his scumbag ex wife because there was nobody who could care for the son for a year. He chose his son and resigned his commission.

The double stress of raising a young son and starting/maintaining a new career would be enough to shorten anyone’s life span.

Posting is one thing, excerpting is another.

He's trying to send traffic to his blog.

Stealing, basically.

The reason is not established with certainty, but researchers suspect an unbalanced diet, lack of exercise, and higher alcohol consumption.

Nonsense… these are just outcomes, not the reason. To stay mentally and physically healthy, a man needs regular sexual releases with the committed woman who he is married to. Sex is such a powerful component to a man’s being that when it is removed, he often falls apart and replaces it with something else that invariably is unhealthy. Are there exceptions? Sure but not many.

I see a lot of single fathers in the supermarket on weekends with their kids. A heck of a lot of processed food and sweets in the basket. I assume that they are generally “treating” their kids while, maybe, mom is feeding them more nutritious food. But if the guys eat that all the time, it is not healthy.

So what if he sends traffic to his blog? What concern is that of yours?

Would you let some criminal profit by abusing the property of your host?

Spending your life over-eating, over-drinking, and sitting on the couch acting stupid ain’t no way to go through life.
