"I meant really as I have been posting here since 2005 and I guess I thought my situation was pretty clear."
I understood that his job limited his availability to parent, but I figured he would parent whenever he had the opportunity. If you've said differently, I missed it, entirely possible.

At least you knew what you were getting yourself into before you had kids... you knew you'd be pretty much a single parent, 100% responsible for your children's upbringing, at least emotionally, not financially. But, if it works for you, it's not for me to say if it's right or wrong. Many of us didn't plan to be single parents... we planned on raising our kids as part of a team, with the other parent. So maybe that initial expectation has something to do with it. You knew from the start you'd be in this all by yourself, that dad's contribution would be only financially... we had an agreement with the other parent to be in this together... and to have the other parent change that agreement mid stream... yeah, there are some resentful moments. I try not to dwell on them, and sometimes I succeed at this more than others. I can understand another parent needing to vent, when they are a single parent, carrying the entire load on their shoulders...and not by their choice.

"Everything I do, I do for them. "
Well... we do have that in common. :)
