If you believe that a country can mature as a child can. And if you willing to help change it.

There is no "best" country. Patriotism is not the belief of "my country is the best because I was born there", rather it is the knowledge of what you owe your country based upon what your country has given you. Those who are born in countries like American, Britain, and Australia (among others) certainly owe their countries a great deal of loyalty and civic participation, but no country is "better."

Yes, he SHOULD love you more than he does the kids, but very seldom does that happen. In my case, I definitely loved my kids more than I loved her, and we ended up divorced after 25 years. If I had loved her more than the kids , it might have ended up differently. If I had it to do over however, I think I would still love the kids more......they're MY flesh and blood!

anything worth doing is worth fighting for... who cares if there is a mix... are you happy? Are your children happy? My family hates the man I married, and his family hates me... everyone seems to think that they know what is best... we love eachother, our son is fantastic, well rounded. We are a happy family and have been for the past 6 years... goes to show that sometimes the world is wrong... go figure

Not at all. Congrats to you for supervising your children. Every parent should be a parent and watch their children.

No. However, be responsible parents and actually get along and share the childcare properly. Make sure each decision is based not on how YOU feel but what is BEST for YOUR children. Show your children that although mom and dad were honest enough to say they shouldn't make each other miserable, they share a deep love for their children and put aside personal feelings when necessary for the good of the kids. You don't have to live together to be loving caring parents. You only have to think about them first.

My child!  Hands down!  No doubt in my mind!  I love my child more than any living thing on this earth.  Her father should feel the same way!

I'm really not sure, i would want to fight for my birth country yet i dont know anything about it. I dont know whether they're in the right or wrong and who i will be fighting alongside. If i fight for the country i have lived in most of my life, then i would have a patriotic feel.

Of course! I love everything of my country because I feel it is MY COUNTRY.\nI can say I like other countries' people, traditions or language. Sometimes I'd like to live in another country.\nBut I am Italian, and in another life I would be Italian, because Iim proud to be it, even though all problems Italy can have.

People don't love their countries because they're the best, the love them because that's where they feel at home.  People like to say that their country is the best, but this is just an emotional expression of their patriotism, and not based on fact.\n\nComparing countries is like comparing apples and oranges, many of them are rotten, but most are good in their own way.

Absolutely not. For one thing it is against the law. Not to mention he is a liar and cheat and he used you and your son. I for one don't want these kind of people in my country. But I don't mean people of his nationality, I mean  lying , cheating s.o.b.'s. Don't give him anything except a shove to get him headed back to his own country. Then, you won't have to acknowledge him as the father of your child. Don't get me wrong, your boy should absolutely know and understand his heritage. But he does not have to learn that it is a raciest one. I guess I don't understand these things clearly. Why do people who hate Americans so much go to such extremes to be one?

I wouldn't personally but there are many who have a closer connection with other countries.  No matter how wonderful you think the US is, there are many out there who feel the same way about other countries.

Doing the right thing is doing what's best for the child.  Your child deserves a good life and if, as you've said, you can't provide her with that, you did the right and brave thing by giving her an opportunity to get a good life.  You're a better mother than most in your situation.  They keep their kids and then their kids grow up to resent their mothers and themselves for the life they have.  I think you should be proud of yourself, and since you still get to see your daughter, be honest with her about what you want for her.  She'll be proud of you, too!
