Baby Daddy is going... going... gone🤞🏽

So I have two kids, by the same man, and I finally decided that enough is enough. They are 5 and going to be 3. He and I were off and on the whole time. I moved to a new state 2 years ago. He was supposed to come with us but changed his mind last minute. He didn’t see them often didn’t pay support so I cut him out of their lives until 2 months ago. He claimed he wanted to see them to help support them. Same lies different days. He has had 5 chances to have “his” weekends with them and has missed 3. So I finally decided enough is enough. I told him we are going to court where I’ll file for full custody, no visitation, and to have their last names changed to mine. He didn’t believe me at first but after multiple same texts I think he got the hint.

UPDATE*** So as not to confuse things Let me make something clear. I Am Not using my kids against him. I am saving them from a revolving door Dad who only comes around when it’s convent for him. I will not allow him to emotionally damage my kids by popping in to be the “cool” parent when he feels like being a parent. He doesn’t care to see them he doesn’t want to spend the money it takes to come see them. Idc how the pictures I posted make it seem like I’m the bad guy. I just wanted a safe place to vent because my family just keeps saying I told you so. He is in the wrong and took his blessings of these kids for granted and I will not let him use them to make him look better to his family.

UPDATE AGAIN**

I fully intend to take him to court. Idc if they say he gets to see them. I want them to have us both but that’s not what he really wants. He’s nothing but empty lies. I have texts of him saying he’ll come and backing out. Saying he’ll pay me support and then never did or “didn’t have the money for them”. Once the court realizes he isn’t capable of being a real father I’ll still get what I know is best for my kids, him gone. I wished the situation was different for the last 2 years but it’s not and I know it never will change with him. So I’m don’t wishing and making it better for my kids sake.
