Exactly , they are your responsibility. You say mother #2 won’t let you take the kids to Mass. but you still have a responsibility to teach them Mass and worship of God comes first. And how important it is.

You know what, they will watch you go off every Sunday and soon be demanding of their mum to go.

And by your response, leaving them for an hour with a grandparent is doable.

Does your gf go to Mass
 
I am actually going to have the thread closed because you’re right.

My specific problem has been resolved and no more advice is needed.
 
Well we can’t all live like kings. You obviously don’t live with your parents now, so you had opportunities, those you call disease ridden haven’t got.

Does your gf attend Mass
 
Well there you go. Leave the kids with her for an hour, or your parents, or in laws and go.

Be that example men are called to be, as Catholic fathers.

You are responsible for two families of kids knowing , loving and worshipping God.

Yep, first they will call you crazy for going to Mass and the effort required, but then they will come to accept, and support what is obviously very important to you.

And as Catholic we still have obligations including Eucharist and Confession annually,
 
His domestic issue question was resolved a long time ago. All the other facets about his vasectomy, to dating, to whether he attends Mass were not part of the original issue. Unfortunately, he let himself get sucked into defending himself and answering questions beyond the original issue by those who were probing into things that had nothing to do with it. He didn’t ask for opinions on all those other issues.
 
I will pray you find the whatever is needed to start attending Mass and being that example.

That Catholic father and family man example.
You might be amazed at what being involved with your Parish can bring, as far as help and support.
Walk back into a church.

Thank you.

Sometimes I am too honest for my own good and that includes answering more questions then needed.
 
Ok so putting that aside, you have a non-Catholic girlfriend who you spend time and money on.

You need to stop that. It isn’t about your happiness.

So what if the divorce decree indicates that you need to do “half” the driving only? You made kids. You need to do what it takes for them. That’s it.
 
Past history factors in whether or not he wants to believe it. Obviously the parents were thinking about his history when they made that demand.

Why are you so keen defend? 2 kids, to 2 exes, and another girl in the wings? I’m sure she wants children. How is one guy with an ok job going to support three families?
Those are the details that people are advising him on.
What’s done is done. But there are children involved. Catholic children. A lifetime of dispensations? If this new GF is a very nice person and it works out for them, undoubtedly she will want to take them to her church. More confusion.
I just don’t get it.
It seems far more than just not wanting to put extra miles on his commute. 😯

This is a good point.

Unfortunately, all I have is EMT and warehousing.
 
She doesn’t want anymore children, so that is a non-issue.

And she would not want to bring them to her church knowing that I am Catholic. She knows they must be raised Catholic.

It’s not a non-issue because of her, it’s a non-issue because of you. And I’m beginning to think you keep bringing the conversation back to it, not everyone else.

I’m going to be really, really blunt here.

You obviously have use of the internet and a keyboard. Use it for something other than talking about why you get a free pass at Catholic moral teachings on a Catholic forum. Use Kahn, take free online college courses so you can pass some CLEP, take credited online colleges, learn from skillshare.

If you are able to post on this board there is no reason you have to be stuck in a manual labor job.

No time?

Ditch the girl.
 
No, I will not stop it.

My relationship is none of anyone’s concern but her and I.

The welfare of your minor children IS concerning to most of us. No matter how cheap she is she takes up time and money. Both of which you could be using for your children and for bettering yourself.
