OK, here's my situation:
My dad had no intention of marrying my mum. In fact, he left her before he knew she was pregnant and only went back because he found out she was pregnant. My mum already had three children.
My dad has never provided for me. He apparently said that if anyone tried to make him pay child support, he would leave the country and we would never see him again. He also was violent to my mother at one point so I've heard. I'm going to university in a few weeks. My mum can't afford to help me and my application for an opportunity bursary was rejected. My dad said, "I'd help you if I could.", but I know those words were empty. He could easily help me if he wanted to, but that would mean drinking less beer and such.
Now if I can love my dad in spite of all this, forgive him for beating my mum, for all the drinking, for neglecting me and my brother and for practically telling my brother he shouldn't have been born, surely SINNER007's child would be able to love him?
