Sour Spitefulness

July 26,2013

I'm a single mom.  My kids are still fairly young.  During the first year of my eldest I worked in Retail Management, started a small business, and proceeded to run that business.  But my child was "never" lacking attention.  He knew mommy was there, and like any other mother, I showered him with love and affection. However, I can't say the same for his father. 

When my youngest was born I was able to take some time off after birth.  Also at one time I was out of work for about three months and he was about three years old.  It was just him and me.  Again he knew mommy was there was also showered with love. 

I divorced about three years ago, and in that time for the most part it's been just me and my boys. They have gotten very protective of mom, my BOLD LITTLE WARRIORS!  I've never down-talked, disrespected, or ridiculed their dad in front of them. I try my hardest to prevent any negative conversations. But their dad has not done so at all. Often he has caused confusion or attempted to do so.  Our kids are extremely intelligent.  That plus the barrier of a mother's love!  Someone should have told him- it won't work!!!

One thing I respect my mom for is not bad mouthing my dad to us when he left us!  She allowed us the freedom to draw our own conclusions of him. When we couldn't understand she would try her best to explain. Our persuasion of our feelings for him and toward him were influenced by HIS actions. 

My point is, for anyone,man or woman, who may or may not be together, but have children together, remember your actions to and in front of your children are very crucial!  You may think you are turning your kids against the other parent, but they can think for themselves just fine, and will eventually know when to pull the wool away from their eyes. Mine have and they're beginning to resent their father. For those of you with cruel intentions, that future with your kids could possibly be destroyed!!!

What's more important, your CHILDREN, or the chance to destroy the other parent?
