"Well, I'm older than you so you need listen to me!"
"Yeah, well I'm the 'man' in this relationship so I should be respected!"
"Well, you didn't brush your teeth the other morning!"
"Yeah, well I ain't changin the floors either!"
This stuff is for kids and middle-aged adolescents....it's petty nonsense.
I encourage y'all to find a stable, caring, loving couple that is committed to each other that sincerely wants to adopt and raise a child. Give this child a chance for a quality life because it's clear you and the mother don't care for each other. And you've made it abudantly clear you don't care for this child.
My wife knows exactly what it's like to have a father that cares nothing for her...thank the Lord above my father embraced my wife as one of his own daughters 2 decades ago and helped fill that void in her life....that's how a strong, courageous, loving man acts.
