Don't criticize him for being mad at his dad. If he was abandoned for no good reason, he has every right to post that; regardless if anyone would post that about their mom.

The Census bureau also shows that 90% of fathers with joint custody pay all of their child support owed, 70.1% of fathers with access to their children pay all of their child support owed, and only 44.2% of fathers with no access to their children pay child support owed. There is thus a correlation between an active, involved parent, and paying child support.

From one of his posts in the thread:

He left at a young age and took my brother with. I've got absolutely zero memories of him and it's quite frustrating.

I think what hurts me most is knowing that he has NEVER attempted to reach out to me, find me, contact me.

Sounds like a case of PAS.
