Tough Love can come back and bight you in the ass

I've been a strong believer in not giving my kids everything they asked for. On the other hand, their mother would bow to their every need.

Today I am faced with extreme loneliness because I was not the ultimate giving parent that my wife is. I may be loosing the only person I have ever given everything to, my wife.

My kids care nothing about how I'm feeling and all their attention is to their mom, understandably!

I could soon find myself all alone in this world and it's all because I loved my kids enough to care about how they grew up and took care of themselves in this tough and cruel world.
