If you want to see my children

 If you want to see my children, that’s on YOU.

Show up. Be present. Put in the effort.

Don’t claim to love them while doing the bare minimum.
Don’t act like I’m the problem when you’re the one choosing not to show up.

It is not my responsibility to build a relationship between you and my kids.
It is not my responsibility to remind you they exist.
It is not my responsibility to chase you down so you can play “family” when it’s convenient for you.

That weight doesn’t fall on me. It falls on YOU.

So don’t guilt me. Don’t twist it. Don’t act like you care when your actions say otherwise.

Because if you really cared about my kids, you’d prove it. With consistency. With effort. With love.

Not excuses.
