Now before we go into what an Un-Father is, I want to
say that not all fathers are rubbish; I was
lucky to have an amazing father; my
brother is a great father and there are hundreds of thousands of men out there who
are excellent, loving, caring dads. This is not about you.
What are Un-Fathers, you ask?
Un-Fathers claim to love
their children but they are absent from their lives; they are emotionally,
unavailable "aholes" and really rubbish fathers; and they are always always busy;
they choose not to be around for the milestones, they miss birthdays and their kids successes and failures, and they are never around to pick up the pieces; many of
them don’t pay any child support, don’t give a shit if their kids have a roof
over the heads, or food on the table. If they do bother to communicate (and
that would be maybe once in a blue moon) it is probably via email.

Sadly, since the Un-Father is a mutant breed, they are
constantly evolving into new levels of disconnection and non-commitment. But here’s the crux of the situation, when these kids are
old enough to make their own decisions, and once they realise they don’t need that kind
of person in their lives , they unceremoniously and abruptly cut
all expectations of having a father and successfully move on.
So today, if you are that man, wondering why your
children did not call you for Father’s Day or send a card, it’s probably that
you have gone from being a father to an Un-Father…don’t blame the kids and for
heaven’s sake don’t blame their mothers,instead be happy that you finally got what you wanted.
