He was a lazy man too and only worked for money for alcohol and drugs. He didn't care if we had food or anything else. My oldest son is 20 and is an EMT so I think he turned out well even though I was such a young mom. My sons have nothing to do with their father though. And he has 2 more sons by different women. I wish I had waited and picked a better father for my children. But their stepfather is good to them. I told my sons to wait until they are financially settled before starting a family. |
I know that you wished you had waited for someone better, but your short lived marriage to a man not worthy of you produced a family that you are proud of.
