5. you do not get the way it works, obviously. and i do not need to rethink
Tue Aug 21, 2012, 01:02 PM
Aug 2012

the assumption that a child is better off with a mother, because i have never felt that to be true. i have many many many posts where i challenge that the father is not a capable parent. that is often promoted thru men, but too many women also.

i am squarely with the best parent.

again, i have said this repeatedly and will say again. i have two brothers that raised their kids and one mother was not allowed in the childs life (actually, that is not exactly how it happened but it was a decade battle and i doubt you are interested), and one mother choose not to be in the childs life. i have lived it first hand.
