Great post/thread Ccraig !

Happy Father's Day to the men of WH and beyond !
So today I witnessed the saddest thing! My mom's bf came to dinner with us, and his son and his friend also came. His son followed him home prior to the dinner so he could change. The rode to dinner together and had plans on going to the casino.
Well when we ordered, the son said he and the dad would be on the same tab. We all ate, talked, had a great time. Come time to pay, the son stuck my mom's bf with the bill, and the son was nowhere to be found. So my mom ended up having to take him home, and he didn't even get to enjoy himself at the casino.
Pretty effin low if you ask me. His father has been through so much. And of all the days to treat him like , he chose Father's Day. I wish I would have had the money to pay for his bill. When I was leaving I wished him a happy father's day. He replied, "Yeah some father's day." It just broke my heart!
So I wrote this to tell everyone to please cherish those that have always been there for you! I mean this guy has been really down on his luck, and his son just added insult to injury. Show them you care. Actions speaks volumes.

Behold the presence of the Father in all beings...
I know a little about this too. My stepdad married my Mom when I was 20 something. He and I are more like best friends than anything else. His 2 sons are both criminal pukes that have hit and stolen from him. My wife, son and myself went up yesterday to celebrate with him. We took cole slaw, potato salad, pork steaks and everything it takes to cook the meat with on a grill. We had a wonderful day with him and my Mom. We don't get up that way much due to my IBS, but I made it up there and back with No issues- YEAH ME!!!! Had a Great time and can't wait to get back up there. It's only 70 miles, but some days it seems like it's a million miles. Wished him a Happy Father's Day and he seemed happy to hear it but I know he wished his son's would have at least put their carp aside and been there.
You've got a great heart CC, don't ever change![]()
Do we not realise that in order to find a soul
It doesn't happen over night
if truth were to be told.
Like everything in life that's hard to achieve
you must believe!
Very sad when you see people take for granted what they have...and not just take it for granted but take advantage of it. There is little in life more special than a good Dad. But as has been said, what goes around comes around.
"Be what you're looking for."
"The next time you're thinking of kicking someone when they're down, offer them your hand and help them back up instead."
With the sadness and frustration of the " Worst Son Ever ".
It is a consolation to you and your Mom and her Boyfriend,
To Know how the Son is and be able to be prepared for the " Next Bad Son Behavior ". You all are now warned and should get together and plan a reaction to his selfish and self centered and using of others,
Fathers day or any day, he should be made to pay his own way, ( unless stressed beforehand ) and make this upfront, where he gives someone the Money to hold. Especially in a Casino where people tend to be wastrels.
On another note ...
My Baby Boy, who's 24 and still a Virgin, is the Man of our home. I give him a Fathers day gift every Fathers day, since he was 15 ( As No Man has lived in our home with us since then.
Even though I married 8 years ago , My Husband never got to move here to America and we have lost contact for 6 of these past years and I have no idea if I am Widowed or not .)
But Back to My Son...He is Not a Father and does Not plan on being one for Many years to come ( if ever ).
But he is the one that teaches his Sister ( 21 now) , how a Man and Father figure should be. He is the one she goes to for " Questions " about young men and relationships, He is the one she goes to for support, because she knows I'm Older and Set in my Ways and most likely Biased and Over Protective of her ..
She will go to him to get his feelings on " How to Tell Momma " Lol
He is a Wise young man and even I go to him and ask if I am reacting correctly in this day and age, versus, my day and age.
He is an Awesome Son and I am very Proud of him.
And he still Shakes his head in confusion or wonder, when I get him a Fathers Day card and a Gift. And I always tell him, whether he has Donated Sperm or Not to a womb, He is a Father at Heart.
