Muffed Up Moms

Seems like just about every day, I pick up a news paper and I read about some "Dead Beat Dad" who is not fulfilling his child support obligations. Now, true to form, there are several fathers who could be doing a better job, but that is not what I here to talk about today.

I want to talk about those good for nothing worthless women who refuse to be a part of their children's lives. You know the ones I am referring to; the ones who walk away from their children, and blame the children's father (who ironically is the one who is now taking care of the children) for everything. These are the women who get divorced, leave the children in the custody of the fathers, and then pretend that they do not have children.

Yeah, this one touches a nerve in me because I have one of those ignorant excuses for a waste of human flesh. We separated in 1992, and I arranged for us to go to court to discuss child custody. I was still active duty in the Navy at the time, and just knew it would be best for her to take custody. Unfortunately because of her ignorance, and the crack head she was shacking with at the time, she refused to come to court, and the judge awarded me custody by default. Of course, this would cause me to have to leave the Navy because of the requirement for me to be a full time father.

Now, I decided not to go after her for child support, partially becuase she said I would get it over her dead body. As such, I decided to just leave it alone, and did not actually decided to pursue child support until she revealed that she was going after the drug dealing baby daddy of her other daughter for child support. I think what really made me finally decide to do it was after she told me that there is a law in the State of Wisconsin that says the custodial father does not get child support. I guess she did not think I was smart enough to know how to communicate with the State of Wisconsin via email. She found out when the judge ordered her to pay child support. To this day, I think she is still behind, but it really did not matter much; afterall, I made my point.

She has had several opportunities to visit her children, but refused to. Amazingly see seems to always get amnesia around Christmas and birthdays, because in more than 13 years my children still have yet to receive a gift from her. Then there are the countless broken promises, the lies, and the belittling conversations.

Bottom line is this, she has not done anything for these children, nor does she plan to do anything for them. Seems the only thing she is good for is blaming me for her woes in life. Honestly, I really don't care how she feels, because this situation is not about me or her. This situation is about her lack of concern for two beings that she gave birth to. Yeah, everyone talks about "Dead Beat Dads"; what about those "Muffed Up Moms"? Talk about that.
