My Dad died when I was young but my mother didn't hide his identity. I don't think she would have considered doing such a thing really.

Yes, I grew up with my mother and father and was the youngest of their 7 kids.  I do, however, still understand your situation as the father of my son vanished the minute I told him I was pregnant.  As harsh as it is to say, though, I still feel that it was no big loss.

I know who he was, but he was killed racing cars when I was 3 years old so I never really know him. I lived with his mother and father when I went through high school and until I entered the Army, but they didn't talk about him. What little I did hear was he was not very nice, but I don't care now, he was still my Dad.

I was blessed to be raised in a two parent home, but my child's dad and I split. At first, I thought that I'd keep my child's identity from the father, but after thinking that our child needs to know their dad and health issues that the dad's side of the family may have, I had to tell him, and I'm glad i did. He and I may not be together, but he has help our child go to college, buy a vehicle and other things I couldn't afford, plus our child talks to everyone in the family. I have no regets with telling him.

Yes I know who my father is.  Unfortunately he passed away a number of years ago.  I miss him greatly. :(

Yep. I know who my father was. I thank God for him because even though he did not live with us he had this way of always making me feel like I was very important to him. He was there when I went into labor with my first child he constantly checked on me to see how I was doing.  I love and miss my daddy he passed away at a young age. :rose: :heart:

My Father lived with us until my mother kicked him out of the house when I was twelve years old. My blood father had a hatred for everything and everybody except himself and even that was questionable. I guess it was better that I knew this then not to have known and been under the illusion that he was anything more than a low life. His hatred for women has made my sister an emotional basket case that is dependent on prescription drugs. My mother. and step father, never spoke poorly of my blood father until a few years ago. Blood father has been trying to get in touch with my children and I finally started letting them speak to him last Thanksgiving because I feel they are strong enough to sort out right and wrong. They have already determined that he has issues.

I would love to have a relationship with my father, but I was deprived of having one by my mother and grandmother.  When I told them I wanted a father, I was scolded and sent to bed.  I don't wish that kind of feeling on my worst enemy.  I cried myself to sleep because my feelings were hurt and, although my stepfather was the dad I never had, the feeling I have had for years is what if my father were still living.  I would have treasured any time I could have spent with him, but he died of brain cancer at the age of 31. ??? ??? ??? :( :rainbow:
