Help answer this question below.
Well.....now he is best at opening his mouth and bragging about the 3 sons he has with the woman he left with about 40yrs ago....he is also great at thinking he is really funny...but he really isn't. He used to be great at decieving people when he was a preacher....into thinking that he was living a good Christian life. He was also good at attracting all the women...because he WAS very handsome.......he also was very good at not keeping in contact with the 5 children he had with my mother. He was good at turning his face and not caring about how we were suffering and how he devastated my mother. One more thing....he is very good at denying the fact and responsibility that all my brothers and I have had some serious issues because of the decisions he made 40yrs. ago.

your story is a common one, sadly enough!

Yes. A lot of fathers tend
to bring hell and don't give
a shit, deny responsibility
or plain out laugh at times.

Thanks a bunch....what is so funny....is that he always talks about all the books he wrote....and how he is writing another one now....but he always fails to write about his BIG mistake and how he is sorry for all he's done....I feel bad...that I sound like I am feeling sorry for myself...when there are alot of others out there with the same story. It is sad to say but at the age of 52...it still hurts when I think of it....and he still inflicts pain when he calls every week and talks of his sons and all of their achivements....while my brothers...have spent most of their lives in prison.

trust me, there are MILLIONS of people who understand exactly what you are going through. Im one of them! (except i cut off all contact with him about 6 yrs ago.) I hunted him down when I was 19, he bounced in and out of my life for the next 9 yrs, bragging the whole time about how wonderful he is. then disappearing for a yr at a time, then reappearing. I walked away on my own terms!

Well....I think his wife gave him permission at my mom's funeral to finally have a relationship with his other children....but he still doesn't want us to ever call his house....he calls us or if we need to...we call his cellphone. His sister called me the day after my mom died and talked to me about how she had a right to be at his side at my mother's funeral because she was his wife. I didn't want any problems and I thought let her....but if my mother's sisters kill her....oh well! I thought...if she is there because she wants to pay my mother the respect she didn't give her while she was alive.....whatever...what she is there for is between her and GOD. I personally didn't want her there.
by Regina on October 18th, 2009
HE shouldnt have been there. The funeral is for the people who loved and cared about this person. You must be very strong to put up with him. I cant stand the thought of my father. I know I have multiple half brothers and half sisters out there (in addition to my two full brothers) but he would never disclose their names so we could make contact. I dont think he has anything to do with them either.
by ladyshakespeare on October 18th, 2009
Well little did his wife know....but he had been sending my mother money to help her for about 3 yrs before he died..I think he may of apologized to her for what he did to her.....I hope so. He told me a little after she died that what he did was wrong...and apparantly he told one of my brothers that if his wife would die....he would run to be with my mother. Yeah right...!! I don't know what to think of him at times. I feel sorry for him that he has no clue....of what damage he has done. He made the excuse that he was there for us at the funeral...but in reality....he didn't need to be...we are all grown adults.
by Regina on October 18th, 2009
he is old...he is trying to soothe his own guilt and maybe get a ticket to heaven. Mine tried like hell to find me after I walked away, dont know why, but i never returned any of the messages i got from him. I cant let him bounce in and out of my kids lives, they dont need that.
by ladyshakespeare on October 18th, 2009
Sorry, Regina. +6
