I think because it's all i've known and don't know anything else I don't really envy other people, it's weird, it's just that I can't relate to a family structure with 2 parents, i've never experienced it, but in my mind and heart I assume I'm missing out on something.
My parents got legally separated when I was 12 and then divorced in my mid teens, that was my experience growing up, I didn't have a father/son relationship with my dad, but I am thankful that I was able to establish something resembling a friendship with my dad, but with regards the father/son aspect, that ship had long since sailed as I was mid 20's when I made contact!!
So when we get to father's day, I just can't relate to the celebration aspect of the whole day, but that's just how it was!!
