Son’s father says he wants to be in his life.

Alittle back story, when I told him I was pregnant, he blocked all communication. A couple months after our son was born, we agreed on him seeing him. It was me reaching out after he unblocked me. He only seen him 2 other times after that, the last time being when he was 13 months old. He popped back up in February this year, our son will be 4 in September. Saying how he really misses him and can he see his baby. I told him that he needs to establish paternity to get his rights. That if he wanted to be in our son’s life he would’ve been. I’ve been here the whole time, with no help from him. He doesn’t have a place of his own still and he works at a dollar tree. He has 6 other children, ours being the youngest. He has issues with alcohol, but says he hasn’t drank in years. He says his ex was jealous of me and didn’t want him involved. I have a huge family and support from them, I also have 3 older children. I’ve talked to a few of my siblings and my oldest son. I just don’t see a benefit in allowing him to be in his life without seeing any actions. Also if he wanted to be in his life, he would’ve been. I know one day our son will ask about his father, but I’m hoping he gets his life together and does what he has to do. There’s nothing showing me he will be consistent either.

Let him go to court for contact at this stage. He won’t.

What they said. And don’t have any more children with men who have six others they don’t look after.
