  • Single Mums You’re Ruining It For Dads

    Single Mums You’re Ruining It For Dads

    How dare you claim Father’s Day as your day!!!

    You are not mum and dad you may be raising your child or children alone but that doesn’t mean you magically sprout a penis for half the day, you did not make this hild alone, they have a father and you are not it.

    Just because the father of your child has ditched them, done a runner or acted like a total twat it still doesn’t make you a dad.

    How sad I felt when I scrolled down my Facebook yesterday and saw several mums congratulating and praising themselves ie “happy Father’s Day to me” or worse using the day to slag off their ex.

    Father’s Day is not for you, it is also not for the absent father it is a day to celebrate the amazing father’s who stand by their kids, and are a brilliant role model to their off spring!

    There are 365 days in the year to slag off your ex but Father’s Day should not be ruined for us great dads by bitter and twisted single mums who have nothing better to do with their time.

    Shut up, grow up, Mother’s Day is for you, birthdays, Christmas for Christ sake you can even claim easter or Valentines’s day but not bloody Father’s Day.

    Next year please keep your bitter rants to yourself, big up the great dads or stay silent, you just look like an idiot when you claim the day for yourself.

  • Daughter’s Vibtator-Funny Story

    Daughter’s Vibrator

    A mother was walking down the hall when she heard a humming sound coming from her daughter’s bedroom.

    When she opened the door she found her daughter naked on the bed with a vibrator.

    What are you doing?” she exclaimed.

    The daughter replied, “I’m 35 and still living at home with my parents and this is the closest I’ll ever get to a husband.”

    Later that week the father was in the kitchen and heard a humming sound coming from the basement.

    When he went downstairs, he found his daughter naked on the sofa with her vibrator.

    “What are you doing?” he exclaimed.

    The daughter replied, “I’m 35 and still living at home with my parents and this is the closest I’ll ever get to a husband.”

    A couple of days later the mother heard the humming sound again, this time in the living room.

    In there, she found her husband watching the Super Bowl on television with the vibrator buzzing away beside him.

    “What are you doing?” she exclaimed.

    He replied…………”Watching the game with my son-in-law.”

  • Soothing Words After Losing A Loved One

    I stood by your bed last night; I came to have a peep.

    I could see that you were crying you found it hard to sleep.

    I spoke to you softly as you brushed away a tear,

    “It’s me, I haven’t left you, I’m well, I’m fine, I’m here.”

    I was close to you at breakfast, I watched you pour the tea,

    You were thinking of the many things and memories of me.

    I was with you at the shops today; your arms were getting sore.

    I longed to take your parcels, I wish I could do more.

    I was with you at my grave today; you tend it with such care.

    I want to re-assure you, that I’m not lying there.

    I walked with you towards the house, as you fumbled for your key.

    I gently put my hand on you; I smiled and said, “it’s me.”

    You looked so very tired, and sank into a chair.

    I tried so hard to let you know, that I was standing there.

    It’s possible for me, to be so near you everyday.

    To say to you with certainty, “I never went away.”

    You sat there very quietly, then smiled, I think you knew…

    in the stillness of that evening, I was very close to you.

    The day is over… I smile and watch you yawning

    and say “good-night, God bless, I’ll see you in the morning.”

    And when the time is right for you to cross the brief divide,

    I’ll rush across to greet you and we’ll stand, side by side.

    I have so many things to show you, there is so much for you to see.

    Be patient, live your journey out…then come home to me.

  • Breast Is Best Even Dads Can Do It

    Breast is best we are all aware of the benefits of breastfeeding and more woman are doing just that, including extended feeding, all over the internet and the television are people promoting breastfeeding and explaining the benefits of doing so, Breast milk contains antibodies that help your baby fight off viruses and bacteria. Breastfeeding lowers your baby’s risk of having asthma or allergies. Plus, babies who are breastfed exclusively for the first 6 months, without any formula, have fewer ear infections, respiratory illnesses, and bouts of diarrhea.

    But there are some dads out there who are using their own nipples to comfort a crying baby, and people are arguing over this.

    One mum who wishes to stay anonymous told us ” I personally think men who use nipples to comfort a baby are sick in the head what on earth is wrong with just using a dummy, using your hairy arse nipples is bloody gross, and if you think it is normal you really need to seek mental help”

    Val Mitchell however doesn’t agree with the above lady , Val said “What a wonderful idea, dads will gain such a great bond with their precious baby, it’s cheaper than a dummy and when the mum is out the babby still feels the warmth of a body, hears the beat of a heart and has the comfort of the nipple, I wish my husband had done this when mine were small, it would have given me so much more freedom to go out and do a shop or pop and see a friend, my daughter Poppy would only take comfort from nipples so my husband couldn’t stay home alone with our daughter for long”.

    What are your thoughts do you think men using their nipples to comfort a baby is okay or just plain wrong? Let us know your thoughts in the comments

  • Dad Pleads For Help After Son Dumped On His Doorstep

    I split from my ex 2 years ago. She moved away and we decided that our kids would live with her and I see them weekends.

    A year ago our youngest was diagnosed as Autistic. Around that same time, my ex had met someone else. She decided that she didn’t want to look after our youngest anymore as he was too demanding due to his condition and literally dumped him on my doorstep ( she didn’t even discuss it with me, just turned up with his stuff) and said that she needs to get on with her life and cannot look after our son anymore.

    My son was very traumatized, he has school refusal and no attempt was made by her to find specialist support for him…

    9 months on, my son is still living with me and he is settled, he sees a psychologist to help him, however his mother has not seen him properly since (not even on his birthday) nor pays any maintenance for his upbringing. Her excuse is that he refuses to see her (he is still in junior school ) she also working 4 days and claiming benefits but says she has no money ( even though on Facebook she posts pictures of her in swanky London hotels etc)

    I am over the moon that my son now lives with me and I will give him all the support I can

    Sometimes he will cry at night and asks for his Mum, I keep on reassuring him that she still loves him. He is so confused and cannot understand why she ignores him yet his sisters are being brought up by her..I have tried to ask her to spend time with him but she refuses, she keeps on saying that she is too busy……..it breaks my heart that she has literally turned her back on him because he was an inconvenience in her life.

    ……..Any advice on what you would do in my situation? I’m prety desperate for help and advice, I feel broken for my lad😞

  • Is This What Child Maintenance Is For?

    I am often told by others who never had to struggle to make ends meet, that I should just forget about child maintenance payments, so I can move on and forget my ex.

    Yesterday I let my 11 yr old daughter out with friends. I gave her £5 and hoped she would bring back change and not squander it, as it was put by to pay towards her P7 leavers hoodie.

    Her friends had much more to spend and went to a cafe. My daughter decided she didn’t have enough and felt guilty if she spent it, so wandered off to see if she could find anyone else to hang around with.

    She wandered to the other side of town. She has a mobile but I am unable to top it up. I phoned a few times to check she was ok but she didn’t answer.

    Finally I got a hold of her and she was crying and said she was upset as she felt unable to join her friends at the cafe.

    I put my shoes on to walk across town to meet her.( no car). As I headed down the road A car stopped and a disgruntled woman let my daughter out her car, muttering how irresponsible parents are to let their children wander off.

    My daughter was offered a lift home by a stranger. I’m still shocked how my daughter agreed to get in a stranger’s car.

    Once we calmed down, we had a chat why she got in the car. She says she felt so down and lonely as she couldn’t be with her friends in the cafe because I couldn’t afford to give her more money to spend and felt guilty if she spent it, she burst into tears and the woman stopped the car to offer her a lift She felt obliged to get in.

    I am lucky the woman was genuine and brought her back. I feel like the worst mum as I can’t provide her enough to top up her phone just now and let her have a normal teen social life.

    All because ex won’t pay child support.

    Is this what child maintenance is for? To help children to live normal lives, or is it just the mums responsibility to work harder to give her treats or both mum and dad?

  • Dear Working Dads We See You!

    Dear working dads…. We see you!

    We see you working from sun up to sun down. Only seeing your kids before school because most times they’re in bed by time you get home. We see you come home from working 12-16 hours of hard labour & still get on the floor and wrestle with the kids. We see you laid back in that recliner after work with the baby on your chest, dozing off, but you just want to get those snuggles in because each day you’re gone to work the baby grows more and more.

    We see your absence at school functions & sports games, not because you don’t want to be there but because you have no choice.

    You’re the bread-winner. You’ve sacrificed working relentless hours so your wife can stay home with the kids. So she can be there for every single event they have.

    Every single milestone

    Every single boo boo

    Every single sports game

    Every single school function

    Every single Dr appointment

    We appreciate this more than you know. We see that you are hurting inside when your child begs you to go to something and you have to say ” I can’t buddy, Daddy has to work”. The look of disappointment in their eyes but you know that one day they will understand. One day this will all make sense. You did this for them. You worked your butt off so they could do all these wonderful things.

    We see the look in your eyes when your kid comes running to up to you and you don’t know what to do cause it’s a first for you. It’s ok. We’re all still learning. We see how our kids act a fool all day for us moms and you come home and give them that look and they instantly act right.

    Dadding is a hard job too. Just because you don’t stay home with the kids all day, don’t mean that you don’t have it hard. Missing out on everything is probably the hardest part of all.

  • I Am A Dad And I Miss My Children

    My wife recently left me I have two children 7 and 13, I miss them so much I speak with them twice a week and see them for 4 hours every other week. It’s just not enough I miss them so much it hurts. I find myself being emotional when I see and speak with them but I’m positive and always tell them I love them andI’m thinking of them.

    It breaks my heart being a part-time father. My ex says they get upset when I see them as they miss me when I drop them off she thinks if I stay away more it will be more stable for them as it unsettles them I believe being more active seeing them more would help not hinder. I’m a good farther and I love my children but she is doing all she can to ruin the brief time I have with them she demands to know what I’m doing with them criticises me constantly. I have fun with them keep them  safe and care about what they want to do whilst with me.

    I have lost everything my home my wife but I don’t want to lose my children they are all I have left. I don’t know how to live my life without them. Putting my daughter to bed playing with my son being there when they are happy and sad now it’s just brief times and phone calls. I want to be a parent and a father but I’m struggling I’m scared she is trying to turn them against me with her controlling nature and I’m going to lose the bond I have. I feel so alone.

    Please mums if you split with your children’s father make it easy for him to see them, they are not a weapon they are not just yours, men have feelings to, obviously if he is not safe around the children then that’s a different matter, but I am a good loving father who is being denied his own flesh and blood and I’m hurting badly

  • You’re Not Dad Of The Year For Posting One Photo

    Ciara Moore’s Views having gone viral and for good reasons.

    Moore said” Having a baby is all cuddles & about family until things hit the fan with your child’s father and he up and leaves. BOOM now you’re a single mother, left to do it all by yourself, while he MIGHT* ask to see the child once or twice a week and change a couple pampers a day but still gets his beauty sleep while months down the road were STILL feeling like a zombie.

    You get to sneak away once a week at night if your lucky to catch up with old friends (the two you have left 🤷‍♀️) and get SHAMED for it . You’re now a bad mum lol. While he lives his regular life with no responsibilities & drinks and hangs out every day but is still quoted “ Best Dad of the Year” JUST because he posts one simple picture with your child he took the last time he saw the kid bc in reality it’s been like a month 😂.

    You’ll sit at home after work each day with your child and be happy but still slightly alone because you are. You have a beautiful little person that you take care of but when you rest your head at night and realize “wow my phone hasn’t gone off at all …” and no ones even checked on you or offered to bring you a bite to eat to catch up or ANYTHING small just to make you feel a little less lonely … that’s when reality hits you. And you even start to blame yourself bc now your child is either being raised in a split family , has a revolving door of a father OR no father at all.

    I guess that’s a part of growing up is realizing it’s not all that people make it out to be. A picture says a thousand words BUT there’s a thousand more behind it. Dads can drink their feelings away while we have no choice but to face them and pick ourselves back up each day for our child. Especially dealing with some** of the things above or seeing people** i know deal with it .. it’s SAD . But exactly why I admire women/ mothers . We cry all we want but that’s a sign of strength. Somehow we ALWAYS pull through. #notalldadsarethesame !!#dontarguewithme#momsareamazing 👩‍👧👩‍👦
