Seems like your standard absentee semi dysfunctional family to me. Nothing new nothing to do. I'll pose the opposite and worse still situation.
My coworker is essentially a 40+ year old child. I'm not entirely sure what my direct superior was thinking when she hired him but, and not suprising, all she does now is ***** to me about how much of a screw up he is. I could make a full post just on the negative conversations I've walked in on with other people on our building have had concerning him.
I don't know too too much about him but from the pieces I got this. He's never had a job beyond retail manager ever. His last job was managing a game craze in a bad part of town before they went out of buisness. He has two sons some where in nebraska that he doesn't even acknowledge exist but "that's his ex wifes fault" His current wife is a socially awkward sex starved version of him. The best part, and the heart of this post is he has a "daughter" with his current wife. I use air quotes because there's no way you'd know that this was a little girl unless you someone told you. She isn't big or anything but she looks, acts and dresses like an 13 year old boy. The reason? He won't involve himself with ANYTHING girly in any.way. She apparently had barbies and the like when she was young but he refused to interact with her at all with that stuff. So, in order to hey attention from get dad she slowly and progressively adopted more and more boy stuff and is pretty much entirely a lil dude full time. Her mom is equally messed up and is stick in a holding pattern of "it's just a phase" but it's been 6 years strong. She's openly said "I'm tapingy boobs down when they come in". Bull dyke in the making? Nope it's already done.
But it's not my life or my kid... so f*ck it. Not my problem.
