Moana: Sometimes I feel like strangling women who sleeps with a married man knowingly and get pregnant because it shows how selfish she is.Affair children go through alot.She is a lowlife and most times it is the children who suffer the sins of their mothers.He will definitely not give a Bleep about the child.You people won't blame women who go around having kids with men who are already taken. Affair children are like the constant reminder of mistakes or taboo one made.You think the wife of the man will be happy.In this scenario I understand why the men don't give a Bleep. If it is children from divorce I understand. |

jimmychang:I did not insult him. The "you" was referring to men in general. Sorry if he assumes I was referring to him. My apologies. Definitely it can't be all men fault-since some women pocket money the man sends and hide it from their kids,neither can it all be women fault. You all claim that all child neglect results from the women fault . Either she manipulates her kids or she is bad . When will it ever be a man fault? If the kids were born out of wedlock,it is her fault for opening her legs anyhow . If both parents were legally married,it is still her fault,she manipulated the kids . So when will it ever be a man fault? At the bolded, jimmychang learn to read before commenting. My argument was not about having multiple kids, it was about not catering for them. If not why could just one of them remember him or pay him a visit? Did all their mothers(or baby mamas ) lie? Tuface and Davido with numerous kids or even the average Joe with numerous kids that remembers them or even call on their birthdays or once a while bring toys for them is better than a man with just one wife and kids from the same woman that forget his kids after divorce. 1 Like |

Following your comment I have no better contribution to the topic except just 2 simple lines. 1. The men may not be doing well financially" 2. The men may have been taken away by another woman (possibly more ferocious) whose hands his heart now belong" Meanwhile, l appreciate your use of English. ronald4lif: |

This happen mostly as a result of women don't wants the father to be there physically but only financially. Imagine. Such man have no options than to find new love and children to call his and forget those ones. And sometimes, after divorce, no man wishes to visit where his children stay because the woman may be disrespectful to his visit 2 Likes |

Old posts but seems like we aren't ready for this discussion. In the west and most places in the world, the marital laws favor only women. Divorce is incentivize by granting the woman about half the man's wealth and also granting her child custody and support. I read somewhere that in some European countries, the man needs the permission of the mother to conduct DNA test but child support is forced on the man. And even in cases where the women are responsible for the break ups (e.g. cheating, domestic violence, etc.) or have addictive lifestyles (e.g drug abuse, partying, prostitution, etc.) that can impact negatively on the kids, 90% of the time they still will get child custody and support. I think the people who matter and can really make things happens are all about their self ambitions. Women are estimated to be about 55% of the world population and these leaders know that by moving for a change--one that allows for shared custody (male child goes to daddy and female child to mommy) and reciprocal responsibilities (where the father pays the mother for the child with her and the mother does likewise to the dad)--their business interests, political ambitions, etc. will come under immense pressure. As such, the status quo remains. 2 Likes |

because a divorced woman is angry and vile. Some of them try to turn the back of the kids against their daddy by saying all sort of bad things about him, no matter how hard the man try to be a responsible father, the kids would not appreciate it. Men know this and that is why they dnt indulge themselves. Not all dads tho.True Talk But Good Dad does His Responsibility without that |

CuriousStudent: Educated woman! I can feel your bitterness from afar. And I will always and always stay away from your kind. You fight for what you can handle. Why struggle for custody when you have no means. Children are wiser indeed.. They become adults right? They can now think for themselves and begin to look through your hatred-filled advice and vomit all the poison you gave them while growing up. Madam stop wishing. The same instruction goes to you. Keep away from irresponsible men. Do not use your kids as a means of getting back to your ex. Learn to move on. Be at peace with yourself. Mind you, I will never encourage even my sister to stay in an abusive marriage because of the kids. You are not doing the kids any favours. Tell yourself the truth, in your deepest 💓 you know why you are sticking around. In sane countries, there is what we call prenup. And if the women are sincere, why are they not the ones insisting on prenup? Ahaa, unless the woman has some change. If not, she will start the emotional blackmail. Please pursue peace of mind. 2 Likes |

gentle007:The wise take advantage of every exhortation. The fools personalize it. By the way I don't wish men ill,it is men that wish women ill. I didn't wish I'll on the poster,I only explained a real life situation that happens Everytime and gave advice to men on how to avoid it. How is it wishing men ill? The only person with malice in their heart here is you, because you are projecting . Counter my argument or move,you know nothing about my life or personal life. I will continue to call out men bullshit when necessary, the wise will learn from it or ignore. By the way I don't advice children against father's. It is men in the business of poisoning others mind with "don't marry this or marry that or she did this". Children are wiser and think for themselves as you said. No manipulation needs to occur to know who was there for and who wasn't it. I won't advice anybody to be with a wretch like you,poor in mind,and poor in pocket. I can swear you earn less than $1000.

It is always assumed that a man takes care of his kids because he fathered them. That is part of it, in fact, but hardly all of it. A man enjoys a deep emotional satisfaction from his association with his children. Their presence in his life gives it that little more.shine that makes life bearable. Often, during and after divorce, this emotional satisfaction is withdrawn because the women make it difficult or even impossible for the man to connect with his children often. She hoards them or tries to control his interaction with them. (Meanwhile within mutual social circles, she may be reviling him for abandoning them) It doesn't end there, many women frequently work to poison the mind of the children against their father. They would say nasty things that these kids tell their teachers and friends about, who in turn, call their fathers to inform them. The courts also often make the error of giving the man visiting rights only. Preferably it should mandatorily be the children spending time with their father on all school vacations. In my opinion that should be ideal. Anyway, given this withdrawal of emotional staisfaction, in addition with an attempt to withdraw from the emotional devastation of having children whose minds are being actively poisoned against him, the man withdraws totally from the family and starts working towards starting another one. It is a practical solution. In my opinion, it is absolutely unacceptable, even stupid, that women expect to make things difficult for men in relation to their children, yet expect to have an easy time of it. Things don't work that way. On the other hand, divorce is a period of uncertainty and women legitimately entertain the fear that if a man takes the kids, he may abscond with them or try to keep them away from him. That does not imply that she should follow the steps above, they can have an arrangement to make it work. Now this does not attempt in any way to absolve some men that appear to be irresponsible. Having said that. It is the same reason men hate the thought to alimony. Why should any man maintain any woman who is no longer his wife, provides him no emotional support or sexual relations. It is just absurd. Guess what one the highest predictors of present fathers is; joint physical custody. Once a man has access to his kids (I don't mean visitation) in a manner that the woman does not control in any way, he stays with them and takes responsibility for them. Women don't want this ofcourse because it implies that she may not get any child support, they fight it tooth and nail. So it is a 2 way street. |

Re: Why Do Men Drift From Responsibility To Their Children After Divorce? by Nobody: 12:15pm On Jul 29, 2023 |
hairyman:You made sense alot.i can agree. But the welfare of kids should not be tied down to "emotional satisfaction" and the rest. Feelings or satisfaction shouldn't be the reason to withdraw any support from kids. Or do women "feel good" or "connected" to the men before raising their four kids alone? It is never an easy road for either couple,but it seems it's women that still fulfil their duties despite the uneasiness while men can take the royal walk when their emotions,peace of mind or whatever is at stake. This is what men accuse us of, "wanting soft life or taking the leave when a man money finishes or he loses his job". Tying down a man support to his kids after divorce to his "emotional connection " or "gossip from the ex-wives" and the rest is flimsy. But off course those excuses will continue to fly until the law makes it madatory-at that time you will complain of the law being man-hating or gynocentric By the way I also wish the law should be flexible on custody. A woman should not be automatically granted custody. 2 Likes |
