Some women say this man is stupid for working seven days a week to support 16 children . Do you agree?

Question

Man works seven days a week eight hours a day
Goes two nights a week to college to make a better life for his family
Dead tired but goes to parents teachers meeting for all his children
H
All the women whom he married left him for a fun loving man
They said he was to honest and dedicated to his family including them
Hes been going it alone now for seven years
Will be graduating with a four year degree in two more yeares
So tired he hw wants to drop
Told oldest children they are to stay in school and let him support the family
Firdst child is now entering college . All children love their father and are getting raves in school for good grades
Children have clean clothes but not a lot. He does the laundry and cooking
Leaves it for them before he struggles to work Paying for adult babysitter when hes not home
His motto. I made these children Ill die taking care of them Do you think hes a fool.
Every woman he meets says hes a fool He should live a little
He married all .

I say hes one heck of a man. Most people i know say im a fool too for saying that. They say he should put those children up for adoption and have fun like his wives did. I say hes courageous and strong. Also one heck of a father.

He often asks me in his our of despair never around his children why did they leave me . Isupported them I said tyey didnt know any better.

I often wonder if the wives were supposed to be their too to take care of their children?

I t took two to make each child. Not just him

Answer 1

I agree with you... this is one heck of a guy! There should be more people in this world who have such a wonderful since of family! I am sure the ones who care about him are very proud of him.

Answer 2

First of all he is pathetic for not getting snipped after say #4.

Really though he is an admirable man for doing this I think he is a man of substance and if is puitting his children first he should be commended rather then being ridiculed.

I think some parents should take note of this guy and if he is able to do all this while raising 16 kids why when parents have one child they are totally messed up. If anything if you know this person I think he deserves to have a dedication on Extreme Home Makeover come on a single dad of 16 who is more worthy of a home being bulit for him.

God Bless I agree with you this guy is a trooper and should be rewarded for his parenting.

Answer 3

He sounds like a man who is willing to do what it takes to provide for the lives he brought into this world. I am sure that it is difficult for him to maintain a relationship on top of everything else on his plate. I do think that the kids should be helping out with household chores. I mean, after all, the world is not going to cater to them when dear old dad is dead and gone. They need to learn responsibility and give dad a well needed rest. This will help them grow up responsibly as well as making life a little easier on dad. I do hope he finds some rest. All work and no play (or rest) makes dad a dull boy or someone who will fall over with a heart attack one day.

Answer 4

Technically you could legally tell her to take it out of the $1000 you already gave her. There is no court on the planet that will make you pay half of extra curriculars. That is the theory on child support. What you're paying each month is supposed to be your "share" of everything that they child would have needed had you two stayed together. Extra curriculars included. They can make you pay half of unisured med/dental bills, but that's different from soccer. If your court order does not specifically say that you have to pay 1/2 of extra curriculars you have no "legal" obligation to do so. If you do pay 1/2 of the soccer fees directly or "reimburse" the mother for them, it will be considered a "gift" and cannot be deducted from your next support payment or anything like that. So, it's really up to you, do you want to pay them or not??

Answer 5

What I want to know is why he has so many kids?! Sixteen kids is ridiculous, and I don't feel bad for him working 7 days a week! I work 6 days a week, sometimes 7 days and I have only 2 children! He needs to get a vasectomy, I am surprised his little toy hasn't fallen off yet!

Answer 6

The man is never home. How can the children know a father who is never there? He is giving them everything they need---except himself.

ps. I hope the absent mothers are paying child support. If they loved their children, they'd be doing laundry and helping with child care as well.

Answer 7

No, he isn't a fool, he is trying the best to support his kids, what he is doing is amazing and there are not many men out there that would be willing to take on the responsibility of 16 children...

Answer 8

I think that's a good man... and he's right... he made all those kids and now has to break his back everyday to care and provide for them... that's how life is. He chose that life.

And nobody should be telling him what to do or how to live... if anybody wants him to LIVE a little why don't they go and help him around the house or babysit for free?

Answer 9

No, that just shows that he is more than a man. A man is suppose to support his kids, and family no matter how many kids he has. Kudos for him. You have stupid women that don't appreciate a man like that, but you also have women with decency that will kill to have a man like that. There should be more men like him.

Answer 10

He made 16 kids with many different women and you think he's great. All he's doing is what he's supposed to be doing....taking care of his kids. And you think he's great. Have we come to expect so little from men now that when one does what he's supposed to do, he's a hero?
