It never fails. Year after year, single mothers post bitter and angry statuses subliminally talking about their children's fathers or directly tagging their children's fathers in a rant on social media. The main social network that is used is Facebook. Every Father's Day, there are more blasts on deadbeat dads, dads who haven't paid child support or fathers who gotten remarried and their children's mother has yet to forgive them for it than there are posts about fathers and the good that they have done for their children. Frankly, I am sick of seeing it. First of all, my father has not been the best dad in the world and he could purchase a couple of clues on how to be a good father but that doesn't mean that I should bash him. When you bash your father or children's father you are making yourself look bad. Trust me. My mother used to bash my father when I was child and it hurt me to the core and lot of you have children that have a Facebook so trust me they can see all the horrible things you're posting. You also have to look in the mirror when bashing your baby's daddy because it takes two to tango.
Red flags are always there when meeting a guy. We see red flags but the guy is so cute or has a great personality or so established that you try to give him the benefit of the doubt. However, it never fails. Those red flags are always right. You knew your child's father wasn't sh*&t when you met him. You just chose to give him the benefit of the doubt or give him a chance because your heart overpowered your mind. Some of you even thought that having a child would change him. Children can't change a man. Nothing can change a man, but that man. So now a few years go by and he's a deadbeat dad. He hasn't paid child support, he doesn't call the child and he's only seen him a handful of times. It's upsetting, it's frustrating to see your child hurt but you're making yourself look extremely pressed and ignorant when you bash the man on Facebook. He will pay for his mistakes through his children, he will pay for his mistakes through the law, possibly even on his death bed. But you are making yourself look very bad when you spread your business and your children's business on social media. Please for the love of God, stop demanding people to tell you Happy Father's Day. We understand that you have done everything that he has not done for your children, but they're fathers out there that have and are doing a lot for their kids. Don't take that away from them. Stop being so bitter. The best way to get back at him for screwing you over or for screwing your kids over is to live a happy life. Being bitter is allowing him to win. Think about it.
