Can children turn away from their father if he is divorced?

Living with one person until old age seems like a beautiful picture of melodrama. In fact, few people converge on characters and can love their spouse for life. There may be many reasons for this, but this does not mean that people should be judged for having divorced. The relationship should bring joy to both partners. Despite the fact that many decide to save the marriage for the sake of children, our hero did not save an unhappy marriage.



We were married to our first wife for 12 years. She gave birth to two daughters with me. With the arrival of children, my wife stopped paying attention to me and devoted all the time to them. I love my daughters, but I was hurt that my wife did not look at me as a man. We lived in separate rooms for a couple of years. And then I met someone else.



I had no intention of cheating on my wife, so I told her I was leaving her. When my wife found out, she did not stop me, she reacted very calmly. Then I married a new lover. She was younger than me, always interested in my success, she was interested in me.



My ex-wife decided it was better not to see me, and I couldn’t see my children either. Since the ex communicated with my mother, my mother gave gifts to my daughters, I passed money through her. I was glad to be involved in my daughter’s life. And then I had a son and I stopped trying to get in touch with my ex-wife. I paid all my attention to the baby.

Life did not work out with the second wife, she filed for divorce when her son was 4 years old. As it turned out, she found a husband younger than me. She set me the conditions under which I could see my son and told me how much money I would have to give her to support the baby. Then my second wife's new man decided I wasn't worthy of seeing my son. And we stopped communicating.”



Now I am 67 years old, my children are adults and have their own families, I even have grandchildren I have never seen. In all these years, the kids didn’t look for ways to contact me, they didn’t call me and ask me how I felt. I participated in their lives as much as I could. And now the kids don't want to see me because I left them. Am I not entitled to the support and care of my children? I just want human interaction, but everyone has forgotten about me.



No matter how life develops, it is important not to give up. Maybe we should try to reconnect with the kids? Maybe they'll understand and not judge their father when they hear his story. Instead of waiting for attention from your children, it is better to show it yourself. What would you do in this situation? Is it fair to blame a person for the mistakes of youth?
