Childish adults who walk away from their kids.

You know, people wonder why there are so many fucked up families that have single parents; be it a single mom or single dad. It's a wonder people are able to have kids at all any more with the way these so-called 'adults' are so fucking IMMATURE!

I have NEVER seen a larger group of adults being so damn childish in all my life. When I was younger, adults were actual adults. They did adult things like work, get their own place to live, supported themselves and or their families, kept their homes clean, paid their bills, etc... Now... OMG! There are 40-year-olds living at home with their parents, so-called 'adults' aren't getting their own places, not paying their bills, walk OUT on their kids and families WITHOUT a single WORD of theirs leaving over STUPID ASS things such as being told NOT to eat their families out of house and home or to pay their bills. It's SICKENING! These are NOT adults, these are adult-children. Childults. They make me SICK to my stomach and make me want to BITCH SLAP them into adulthood.

It REALLY pisses me off when these 'men' walk out on their kids. You can't call yourself a man if you leave your family and kid(s) for no worthy reason. You can LIE to yourself and your friends all you like but leaving because someone tries to make you be a responsible adult is NOT a reason to leave. Get your shit together, get your head on straight and MAN THE FUCK UP! How do these 'men' think it makes them look when they say they left their child because "OMG, I couldn't handle my ex bitching at me to be mature and responsible. She was always bitching that I shouldn't have 3-5 helpings at dinner or to pay my bills. OMG life was so hard..." GIVE ME A FUCKING BREAK! Life is hard?!! You have a roof over your head that you pay a third of, you "help" with groceries and bills, you have to help "raise" your child... WITHOUT hurting your child all the time because you can't pay attention to shit. And running up tickets and bills, then NOT paying for them is also NOT adulting! SMH... The LACK of knowledge of how to be mature just baffles me. When you have people around you who help you out, take you in and care about you, you do NOT push them away, disrespect them and treat them like shit. You don't walk out of their lives without a fucking word or notice. When you do that you won't have ANY trust left with your family and they will NOT want to help you anymore when you need it... for the 400th time.

I have NO respect left for anyone who does these kinds of things and I for sure won't help them and really won't want them in my life nor any of my family member's lives. They may as well pack their shit, get on the greyhound bus and go the fuck back home.

I don't know how someone who walks out of their child's life without so much as a goodbye can even sleep at night, look themselves in the mirror and be okay with their decision. NO CHILD DESERVES such treatment and no person deserves the title of "parent" doing this. If you can just walk away, STAY THE FUCK AWAY! The child is obviously much better off without you in their lives. Why do I say something so harsh? Because you've proven NO stability, NO maturity, NO care, NO love, NO responsibility... You're NOT a parent. Kids need someone who is going to be in their lives no matter how HARD it gets or how stressed you get or how tough times get. Kids aren't things you can just walk away from and come back to. They have feelings, emotions, memories. They won't trust you and they sure as hell won't want you in their lives if you're always going to be in and out. It's better to have one parent than one and a half. Their lives and hearts are not toys for you to play with. Either be mature and say you don't want to be part of their lives and walk away and stay away or stick it out and deal with what life throws at you.

Walking away teaches your child that when things get hard they can run away from it instead of facing it head-on. How will they ever learn to deal with the real world if all they know is to run and hide from things they think are "hard"? I'd rather know my child has the skills to face hard things head-on with the ability to deal with it and fix it than to know they have no life skills and run away from everyone and everything. That's NOT being mature or an adult.

This is the image you leave in your child's mind when you leave them. It does a LOT of mental and emotional damage to them, sometimes it can't be fixed. It can make it so when they're adults they have trust issues, issues connecting with people, they'll have problems being kind to their partners and will act out in very negative ways. Kids don't understand that you're stressed and can't cope with life all they know is you LEFT and most times, blame THEMSELVES for you leaving. NICE JOB PARENT. NICE JOB!

Good thing your parents didn't walk out on you when you were a child... because when the shoe is on the other foot, it's a lot more painful, isn't it?

Living off your friends and bouncing from home to home because you couldn't hack it as an adult and or parent is not a life and not one you should be giving your child. If that's how you're going to live your life, stay away from your kid(s) before you do so much damage it can't be fixed.
