      Im a single father as well and when i see another father being a man and taking care of his responsibilities it makes me very happy even though we (fathers) are forever being criticized for what other fathers arent doing. We are all judged as a whole and not individually and that truly sadens me.

      @@isabellavalencia8026 no-one deserves to suffer domestic abuse, whether it is pyschological or physical. You might say that the person should leave, which sounds straightforward enough, but if money and/or access to resources are a problem, along with people thinking or threatened that they cannot leave can complicate things. Everyone has a right to defend themselves if being attacked.

    These parents are missing graduations, birthdays, holidays. This is super hard on the kids. They know their parent did something bad and they also know that they probably won't see their parent for years. The parents are missing so much of the kids child hood that by the time they get out of prison or jail, there is only a little longer until the kids move out.

      Zara Mango it’s not that they dont take care their kid they just made mistakes but they should be forgiven no matter what they should still get to see their kid take my dad for example he tried to burn my grandparents house down because he was taking his bi polar medication with alcohol and that makes people act not them selves he made a mistake he still has the right to take care of me and see me no matter what so I don’t do terrible things when I’m an adult I can make choices of my own and if I do have to take medication (which may happen) I don’t drink alcohol I don’t feel in loved my whole life feeling like something is missing my dad deserves to see me and I deserve to see him it’s important for me

    • @cappincronch
      @cappincronch 3 роки тому +4

      Yeah something tells me that it comes down to whether or not he was an aggressor at that point. IE She stabs him once, he falls and is no longer an aggressor. If she then followed it up by stabbing him repeatedly until he was dead, that's 2nd degree murder. Same as if someone tries to rob you, you shoot them, they fall to the ground and are no longer a threat, and you just stand over them and execute them. Another example would be someone tries to attack you, you pull a gun, they start running away, and you shoot them in the back as they're retreating. All of these examples are 2nd degree murder. I don't know whether this case is or not, I'm just saying its very common for people to get charges because they don't disengage after the threat is gone. Something tells me they deemed it a crime of passion because she most likely stabbed him a bunch of times after disarming him.

I was put in foster care at age 11 because of my moms addictions, now I'm 22 (almost 23) and shes been clean for about 8ish years! I know how you're feeling, it's so hard to grow up without her being there to teach you things. Just stay strong, maybe your mom being in there will help her overcome that. Goodluck to you ❤

    This video made me cry for real, it really touched me. When I was 4 years old my mom went to prison for 6 years, I only saw her once in those 6 years, but, I am 12, and almost 13 now , and I believe that everyone should be given a second chance, if they screw that up, then, oh well, but, my mom doing way better, and I get to see her more than I did. During the time that she was away, and still I had/have a wonderful family that raised me, and we all helped each other. If you have a parent in prison, just know, that things will get better. This quote by Ed Sheeran is one of my favorites "Everything will be okay in the end, if it is not okay, it is not the end" If you read this far, I hope you have an amazing rest of your day!

    Much respect to the first dad❤️❤️❤️ 90% of men would have picked up and left kids to the foster system. It's hard to raise a kid alone, much less four, much less all girls, much less when you are a father. Having to deal with female puberty when you are a man is hard. Especially when you don't know what to say when you haven't been through it yourself. Amazing that some men actually step up and take responsibility.
