Is it better to have an absent father or a bad father?


Recommended Posts

Absent. I was raised by a single mother because she didn't want my father involved at all and it was honestly more than ok with me because that's all I knew. I finally met my dad maybe 2 years ago.

Now that I know him as an adult we're fine but my siblings say he was not good to them and would have rather had him absent.

It depends what makes him a bad father,  I guess.... But I think, if kids want a bad father around it is because they somehow hope, that he will be a good father eventually. 

My sister and I don´t have contact to our father. I´m fine with that, my sister is not... Even though our situations are not exactly the same, it is the same person as our father and in my opinion it is much less emotionally draining without him around.

Being extremely lazy doesn't sound as bad as not having a father altogether so it depends on what you define as a 'bad father'. To me if he was someone abusive and also neglected his responsibilities and duties as a parent then yeah, is very likely that family would be better without someone like that.

 

Also not having your father isn't ideal but you can find another father figure in other relatives or persons around you, so there's definitely hope whether you have a terrible father or don't have one.
