    This is so heartwarming. I tried to adopt my stepdaughter when she was younger but her 'real' dad would not sign the documents (even though he had absolutely no part in her life, even refusing to pay child support). I raised her since she was two years old. My daughter then surprised me on my birthday six months after after she turned 18. She had legally changed her last name to mine.

      If you're separated and not paying support, he should absolutely have no say. He wanted a say but not bad enough to actually support his kids...very telling.

      @tylerlopes476If you are paying child support and not a threat to the child, demand the court to give visitation. Your wife nor the courts can require child support without visitation.
      You do not need an attorney for this, just the courage to stand on your square. I know what I'm talking about.
      Also, if you have health insurance for your child, the courts can't require any other support. The judge or attorney won't tell you that support is support because it will affect the demonic extorting system in place.

      @Anal Farmer damn another loner who’s trying to dissuade step parents from acting like an actual responsible parent. Just because you lack familial love, doesn’t mean others do. This family is obviously happy and content with their father instead of some man (the biological father) who doesn’t seem to be in the picture. Trying to dissuade others, won’t make you any happier 🤷🏻‍♀️

Spent thousands in court fighting to legally make us his. Treated us like his own from day one, gave us anything we ever could’ve wanted. Now he’s the greatest grandfather I’ve ever seen. Can’t thank the lord enough for putting him in our lives... love you dad

Look into the Lion Pride...Look how the males behave😂 you will get your answer.
      'true alphas do this and that blah blah for society'- So that it benefits irresponsible women. I am not a simp. These kinds of manipulation doesn't work on me. I have read the story about 'White feather campaign' women tried the same thing... that's how millions of men died....Nice try though...These kinds of manipulation doesn't work on everyone.

You can have your opinions. But personally I would never be invested in someone else's offspring.. I want to pass on all my earnings and properties to my own genetic offspring.
      Also a 'simp' is a guy who sympathizes with womankind. Where do you see me doing that?? In fact I am quite the opposite.
      Edit: I am assuming that you are from USA cuz you tried to make me feel that I am missing out on having a great partner like you cuz you would only date an older man...well, the thing is in my country there's prostitution legal...unlike men in USA we don't need to kowtow to women for mating rights. That's why sex is not a big deal here in my country(it's human psychology- something which is available is not a big deal) and someone wouldn't date me, that's also not a big deal. We only stay with women who care for us. If someone wants to go, they are free to go.

      If you care anything about celebrity wolves, you will do everything you can to reach them and tell them theres not much time left for them to get on the right side.

It's their choice. All worship groups, bookwriters, and every fake minister KNOWS selling anything using the gospel is against the Bible and evil. Do you really comprehend that they are INTENTIONALLY LYING to people?
      Malachi 2 proves Malachi 3:8-12 is prophetic instruction for the thieving church leaders to repent and bring back the money they were never supposed to take and God will end Covid.

      Being awake is a GOOD thing, don't listen to demon hybrids that tell you otherwise.

He was who I ran too when I had a problem with boys, when I got pregnant at 17 he was who I called when I found out even though he and my mother were divorced, when I enlisted he was the person on the phone saying how proud he is of me, when I was preparing for my first deployment I was scared and he just said don't focus on fear focus on coming home day at a time, when I was sent to Germany I was told he had six moths left to live due to COPD and CHF it was the hardest day of my life getting on a plane to say my final good bye to my dad. Ten years now and it still feels like yesterday. Hug each other everyday, say I love you as much as you can, you never know when will the last time be.

    As grown men we are taught to be tough and not show emotion. You could even see by how he wanted to put his shades down. Seeing grown men cry happy tears is the greatest joy ever. I cried right along with him. Thanks for sharing this.

    Show this guy some respect, he knows what’s about to occur, that’s why he needs his specs!, but he shouldn’t be embarrassed of his emotional response. Well done sir. You have my respect!!!. 🍺😉👍
