I was taken off guard seeing a comment with a lot of upvotes in a huge gaming subreddit basically saying "Most dads abandon their children and only visit them once in a while trying to convince themselves they are good parents" (not quote-unquote, but that was what they wanted to say). That is a ridiculous statement, you don't need to pull out statistics and data to know it is untrue.

And this was my reply:

"That says more about your country and your culture than fathers as a whole...

Fatherless rates in different places are vastly different. If you are angry at your father, then drag him instead of dragging others onto it.

Some divorced fathers do not want to see their kids, some divorced fathers are not allowed to see their kids although they want to, and some divorced fathers see their kids less because their ex-wives are unhappy with their presence in their lives. Which one is your dad? The first ones or the latter?

The thing is... the amount of men complaining about not being able to see their kids or hanging out with them as much as they want does show that many baby-mamas don't want their kids to develop any bonds with their dads. As I say, there are also dads who abandon their children and it has nothing to do with the moms... And you should drag individuals who deserve to be dragged and leave the innocents alone."

and...I don't see any lies in my reply, but people there hate it for some reason. It is true that some moms try to stop their baby daddies from seeing the kids. It occurs in real life and it is not rare.

And any other people who share positive stories about their dads got downvoted to filth.

If you are mad at your dad, then be mad at only him and stop spewing your hatred at other dads and kids who are luckier than you.
