When Your Dad Married Three Times Before Having You
Never feeling fully watched
I’ve never felt I had my dad’s full attention, for better or for worse. There are probably times I could have used more guidance. But, it’s also been nice that he doesn’t really mettle. He doesn’t have the time. He has too many kids all over the place to mettle in the lives of all of them. He’ll be there for me when I say I need him to be, but if I don’t explicitly state it, he may not realize it.
