I Feel Like I'm Not Good Enough

I working my ass off, being the dad. Being the guy people can rely on trying to be a good dad.
Am I just not good enough. Or maybe just being taken for granted. Maybe a little if both.

Cest le vie.
Figure out how to make tomorrow better than today and do more good than harm

I think you do your best to be a good dad. And NOBODY can be perfect.

(And always remember: There are also "dads" who are just spending their sperm to produce kids and then disappear forever 😕).

And I guess you are miles far away from those kinds of "dads." 😖

So just continue your way to be a good dad as you've done it already and move on! 👍️☺️

@St0ut I just have one kid. He is 19 now and in a few days 20.

I have really done my best to be a good mother but I was not. And now I'm paying the price for that.

My kid is a BIG PART of the problems I am having today.

But I don't want to blame him too much. I have chosen the wrong husband as a father and I didn't educate my son as I should have done it.

So I have to deal now with the result of my education.

It is what it is. 😐️

@Loretta78 you did you best. And sometimes our spouses let us down to the point of why are we spounce. When we are really just roommates.

This is not all on you.

Is he getting in trouble. ?

All you can do is the best you can . It's all anyone can do .in today's world it seems like that's not good enough for some people , that's their problem . As long as you do your best . Don't put yourself down . That's my opinion anyway
