@@jhundarryll1566 Thank you for you're kind words and you're very correct. It's a void that makes a part of you feel empty and i don't wanna say it's something you ever get used to, you just learn to live with in and in some cases something's are better left alone, it all depends on the situation because everyone's situation is different. I appreciate you're kind words though, that was very thoughtful and God Bless you as well and best wishes to you and you're family as well and my prayers are with you as i pray for everyone. I've always a had a soft spot for kids and even though they're not mine all the broken kids in the world, if i had the means I'd love to adopt every single one of them because every child deserves to feel loved and to hear those words. They need to have guidance and a mentor and i do my best to work with children like that because I've always had a soft spot for them. Everyone deserves to feel loved and wanted and as a child they don't understand why and want answers and the best thing you can do is just give them guidance and love and it makes me feel good to be able to do that as often as i can. I know how they feel even though I'm grown and all and in my case i was sent to a church family and was separated from my siblings, i have a brother and sister in different counties. But that wasn't a good book to open it never was. I learned responsibility and grew up at a very young age and i know things happen for a reason and it's reached the point were i don't even want answers anymore because i refuse to let it ruin my life. I'm happy and that's all that matters and sorry i keep on babbling on. But that comment made me feel good and i appreciate it very much. Best wishes and all the happiness in the world to you and God Bless you as well and i will keep you in my prayers as i do everyone . It's just not in my nature to be a mean person, and no matter how or what some people say on you tube and I'm sure you've seen some adults that actually like children and i had one man call me basically every name in the book and he knows nothing about me and I'm not a judgemental person at all, i guess some people it was on a different page doesn't like you're opinion when it comes to religion and the comment wasn't directed at him in anyway and he just basically sounded like a very miserable soul , but i don't stoop to his level and i pray for people like that. In no way shape or form do i push religion upon anyone because everyone has different beliefs and i don't comment all the time , but this young man really touched my heart in the video. For being 11 years old and to have the courage to get up there in front of so many people showed how strong he was and music to some people is away to help them cope and i can relate to that to , because i absolutely love a variety of music, it soothes the soul in my case anyways. I guess when Kelly wrote that song they get the ideas i believe because of they're past I'm assuming. But I'm sorry this turned into a mini book i apologize. I wish you all the happiness in the world and God Bless you and your family. Thanks again that comment really made me feel good and i appreciate that.

@MrzRatchet I don't really have to imagine it, I am an adult and a mother, which is why it's so... for lack of a better word, heartbreaking. :/ children are supposed to be carefree and have fun and play so to hear them truly heartbroken is so unnatural, you're so right though it does blow a hole in your heart

[@hleebeg]

@MrzRatchet although I can tell you that it's never the childs fault and whether they have grown up with one parent or two or none they are worth the same. Most of the time parents leave when they think they aren't good enough and know that no apology or explanation would be enough, I don't know what happened in your case but I want you to know, you are enough and that there's nothing wrong with you. I don't know if this helps but realising those things helped me. You are worthy of all the good things the world has to offer and anyone who abandoned you or let you down isn't worthy of you. Sorry if this is just cheesy, annoying and/or upsetting

[@hleebeg]

@MrzRatchet I'm so sorry, nobody deserves to be treated that way, especially by someone who is supposed to protect and nurture you. I guess that's one of the only benefits of it not being uncommon, you are not alone and people will understand.

Both my parents left me when I was young. Not literally left me but that's how I feel. My mom died when I was 7, then my dad got married again when I was 8, and that's when I felt alone, because I just lost communication to him, we barely took, he barely calls me, I barely see him actually, we only see each other during Christmas, he was living far away from me. It is hard but you know I have to be strong and just live my life like this 😊

Butterfly Wings lovely. I just recently realized how disconnected men are to new babies , while the mother has the entire pregnancy to experience the upcoming birth.

That’s what I mean by so many fathers never realizing how important they are to their children.

The greatest gift God gave us is our children and i will always always put mine before anything and anybody because they're innocent and it's our job as parents to lead and guide them throughout life. I wouldn't trade mine for anything in this world no matter how old they maybe.

I also feel that song and understand the depths of pain each and every person goes or has gone through. I didn’t meet my birth father until I was 23 years old. I knew about him and thankfully I had a wonderful dad growing up. But still I always imagined, on my birthday, if this was the year I’d get a card, a letter, something. Anything. Most of my life he lived a few miles away from me and never cared to find out anything about me. My own grandparents (half brother and other members of my blood family) went to my church and ignored me for YEARS. It was so hard. He has apologized but not without pulling teeth. I’m 34 now and the pain is still raw, to this day. One will never get over it but we can use it to build us up stronger. So not let this defeat you. Keep striving!

He's never had kids, but he has a beautiful bond with my son, who is 4 and nonverbal, and they act like father and son. There is unmistakable unconditional love, and if the day ever comes around that the other guy changes his mind and wants to be back in his life, I don't think I'd be comfortable with it.

It hurt me, I cried almost every day for that year, so much my mom had to get me a counselor. After, all that time my mom was finally able to contact him at his job and tell him everything. He then had me come and stay with him for the whole summer, and apologized almost every day. For the next 15 years, I would spend every summer and winter with him, getting closer and closer again. We now talk almost everyday! I had completely buried this memory of him leaving me 15 years ago, until I saw this video today.
