Men who have grown up without their biological dad

CALLING ALL MEN!
Hello I would like to take this time to speak to all of you in hopes that there are men wanting to share their stories with the world. What you have lived through can and will help someone else. For one it will help women understand the male struggle a little more and two, the most important reason for even sharing your life is to help these young men today understand they do not have to be what society says they will be, because of what they did not have. In fact, through your life lessons and how you made it without your biological father in the home, will create an atmosphere of change for so many. Just think how many positive seeds you could sow today. I am looking for testimonies of those men who did not grow up with their biological father in their life.

Try no dad at all...vanished into the night air at the age of say 7-8.
Hell, I thought he went to the store.What's the wake?
A whole lot of inspiration to one up and explode the myth that life's over after that.
What can one do , you say?
Answer: A whole lot better for self and vicaroiusly through others who might suffer the same fate but me a a surrogate or the real deal at home.

I vowed to be the opposite of my "sperm donor." I spend time, effort, love, discipline and money on my daughters. It is automatic for me and should be for all parents. However, it was and continues to be difficult for me because I had no template. But my daughters know something that I did not: they have someone who will always support and back them up and will kill himself in his endeavours to make them secure and happy.
