that is not always the case

Quote From: purplepain

I've never been one of these people who are all about DNA, the ex-con at the end of this episode should, IMO, out of this little girls life for the rest of her life.

This man doesn't "love" his daughter. He doesn't know her, how can he know if he loves her? I dont' believe just because he donated a sperm to a woman he was beating up that he has some magical love for her that transcends (sp) time and space. That is ridiculous.

He seems to want her because he can't have her. His behavior since he's been a "new man" by his own account is scary as hell.

Just because they share genetic make-up doesn't mean that they owe each other anything.

While I understand what you are saying about this particular guy, my husband is a bad guy turned good.  My husband made alot of mistakes wiht his ex and now she won't give him the chance to show her that he really has changed.  I believe that everyone deserves a second chance.  We only saw him for a few brief moments talking aobut something that is very hard on the heart.  My husband truly has changed and yet his ex refuses to allow him to see his now 7 year old son.  It is very frustrating and saddening when people in the world automatically assume that once a bad guy always a bad guy.  Please be kind and remember that people make mistakes it is whether or not they learn from them. 

  

Have a Great Day

I've written my piece in the original airing of this show and have found that the boards on the second go-round are even better.  YOU have certainly summed up the perfect answer to ex-con dad who thinks he is entitled by virtue of his DNA.  But I like the way you said it best. 

  

Thanx!

Children have rights too!!  Don't you think a child deserves to know who his/her father is?  i think it is always important.  there are things they can use to build a good relationship i.e.supervised and therapeutic visits!  If he hasn't been proven a bad parent than give the man a chance.  There are a lot of parents out there who have made mistakes and FIXED them.  We all get 2nd chances.
