    There are many reasons a man is unable to spend time and look after his children. I vowed never, ever again to post this. But your post is all too encompassing one size fits all. So have it.....
    **** off, silly ****.

    There is also the issue of the untruths coming from the Authorities, which is particularly notable that they did it at the same time of accusing others, who turned out to be correct, of promoting misinformation. He wasn't an innocent welsh choirboy at all, which was their claim.

    Really? I actually quoted what you said in my post (see below), that doesn't read like saying someone was right.
    Classic.

    Elon Musk doesn’t have any of those reasons. He suddenly started spending time with his son X recently and I think I read somewhere he took one of his other kids to a theme park. His first child died at ten weeks of SIDs (which is horrible, but also he lied about the events of it on X according to his ex-wife) The other nine I think he has shared custody with the various mothers but I couldn’t even tell you their names.

    His daughter Vivian, on the other hand, is a different story. That’s out of his control and while that is difficult, I completely understand why she did it and Musk himself in a recent Jordan Peterson interview effectively declared her dead to him.

    You're entitled to your opinion. But keep your vows to yourself, otherwise you have nothing.

    In the words of the fictional character House MD...

    So everybody lies?
    Philosophicaly what is truth?
    Will this be solved here?
    Paradoxically why not?

    I am most grateful for your admission I may have an opinion.
    But, seeing as though i have broken my vow, it is no longer a vow. So...
    **** off, silly ****.

    I imagine he means if a man chooses to not see or engage with his kids
    Not if it’s taken out of his hands by the ex

    I’ve had that done to me and it nearly killed me luckily she relented after a few months
    If you’re in a similar situation then you have my sympathy

    Look, it was meant in the context of Elon Musk abandoning his child because they didn't fit his expectations. I wrote it in a previous post and repeated it tow Steven Toast when he wrote about EM having a transgender child and raging about this.

    It wasn't regarding you or your personal situation, which I know nothing of and as CR wrote, you have my sympathies if it's out your hands and you're suffering. Having re-read my post, I can see why you could get offended in isolation, but it was written in the context of a conversation.

    Yes, it was all too personal.
    My most sincere apologies for the vitriolic response to your post.

    No worries mate. I wouldn't want to upset anyone, especially regarding something serious. I can write in a bad, rushed manner sometimes, but no ill-intent is meant. If you were writing about your situation or someone close, I hope it sorts itself out.

    So the child wasn’t some random one attacked by someone who shouldn’t be in the country?

    No. Just a different scenario. Far too many stabbing carried out by people who should not be in the country.

    I said avoiding football discussion on a football discussion board is strange. It's like walking into a clothes store but insisting on not looking at clothes, or a pub and asking for a water. People can do it, and people can find it a strange use of time.
