Sometimes I Feel Like I Need to Apologize to My Kid

I don't know how well this is going to come across in writing since it is over 2:30 in the freaking morning.  I don't have insomnia like I have in the past.  I just have a head full of anger.

My son has been going through some crap lately.  Not just a little crap but a whole big shit ton of crap.

I feel so helpless.

I know how he feels and no matter what someone says or does, it won't make anything better.

I totally get that.

The one thing that really burns my toast is that his father is totally unconnected.  It is almost like since my kid was born, he has not been anything to his own father.

I know he reached out and mention to his dad the things that have been happening to him and didn't really get a reply.

The father has absolutely no idea what his kid is dealing with.

My son told me that he feels like he doesn't mean anything to his dad unless it involves money.

My heart sank.

This man has no idea what a wonderful kid he is ignoring.  He has no freaking idea how much his kid needs a father figure for advice or even as a sounding board.

I hate the fact that this man seems to be such an awesome dad to his other kids but doesn't even give a rats ass about his oldest.

I wish I could tell him how I feel but I don't think it will do a damn bit of good.  It never did any good for my son's first 20 years.  Even if I did tell him, he would some how turn it all into my fault anyway.

I hate this man.

It is such a sad situation and I feel like I need to apologize to my son for giving him such an asshole for a father.
