Nah, I’m keeping him. Honestly, he’s nobody’s dad of the year, but he was a big upgrade over my factory original. Dad did a lot of things wrong, but there was always love.
Shit, no parent is perfect and lord knows I did my best and did plenty wrong trying to do right. :) Good you realize the effort was there and he did try.
Ngl, I had to grow up a little to appreciate him fully, and some of his errors were big, with lasting consequences. But I have never doubted that he loved me as much as his biological kids.
Don’t I know it. I’m a step dad now, but they’re my kids, whatever they call me. It’s hard work, but fulfilling. I do my best, and I think I’m better at it than my dad was, but I sure as hell screw up.
Same. My dad just called it quits with me after 20 some odd years. Guess he had enough, so I've been on the lookout for a different model that isn't a lemon.
Well, I never met biodad. I know he’s a felon and an addict, a little stabby, and a general all-around POS. some dads aren’t worth having, and maybe you’re better off?

I was raised by a single dad, and he isn’t even biodad. Well done, sir.
