Single-Parent Father
(New Haven, CT.)
This Father has had his 4 year old son since he was 9months old. What's MOST important o this father is that his son gets the proper tools to become a successful person. This father is consist ant with conversation as I see him dropping off and picking up his son everyday like clockwork...without probably knowing it or not noticing it he's simply teaching him to be on time. So there has to be some type of strategies or teamwork efforts going on there first thing in the morning and in turn teamwork at night.......
FIND THE GOOD.....by simply NOTICING or LOOKING for.
Next step, acknowledge.

(New Haven, CT.)
This single parent Father filed for child support some time ago and had a court appointment for him to receive child support form the mother, he called me after court;
"I am so pissed off with "the system" it doesn’t work in any guys favor!
This is a female state. The mother of my child didn’t show up for court today (for child support). They told me go down stairs and file for a subpoena. WHATT??!!
If I didn't show up for court they would have given HER child support!
If that were me, am man, they’d probably issue an arrest warrant for me"!
"This is SO CRAZY....I WAS PISSED OFF, I almost got kicked out of the court room".

Child Support
(New Haven, CT.)
"I got a call from child support services today"
When I call my daughter I’m asked by the mother to refer to myself as “Anthony (my first name) – your mothers friend. NOT AS MY DAUGHTERS FATHER.....this mother just got married a year ago………and this mother wants her husband (of one year) to be the noted as the “father of my child”
I asked Anthony how that made him feel. He responded -"It makes me feel like shit"…when asked why it makes him feel like shit he said "It bothers him" because he double questions himself, if he signs over his custodial rights he would not have to pay child support (and it's been hard to find a job)…but on the other hand if he signs oer his rights he feels like he’s giving up on daughter as a Father and he said "that’s not him”!
"When I call to speak with my daughter her mother says it’s Anthony, the one that sends you gifts and stuff"
Anthony says "sometimes my daughter doesn’t even get on the phone and that hurts"!

I have personally seen the effects, both negitive and positive, of father/male involvment. First, I truly believe every child needs to have a responsible male in their lives. So many do not realize the effects this will have on children as they mature emotionally, physically, and mentally. Unlike women, men bring a different aspect to a child. A male brings security; this will be a deciding factor on how each child (male and female) is as an adult. It will guide their academic, relationship, even job decisions. Second, How a child is treated will be the building blocks of their character and integrity. Because of this any male who has the chance to make an empression on a child's life should make sure what impression they making is a positive on and be aware of the future effects it will have on that child. Small impressions today will make a huge impression tomorrow! Single Mom/Teacher
