Today, my deadbeat dad threatened to press charges against me for harassment if I ever contact him again. I've contacted him twice in the last two years, once to tell him he was going to be a grandfather, and once to send him a birthday card from my son. FML

you and your son are much better off without him

Sorry OP. I would say your best chance is to leave him alone and maybe wait until he comes around. Nothing much you can do there. Hope you two can have a better relationship on the future.

What a douche. I would ask him for any family medical history that you may need in the future and then never speak to him again.

Not everyone deserves to be a parent... You have created your own family and that's what counts. My sister just explains to her son that we don't talk to grandma cause she's mean...

Better off without him. Don't bother, if he wants something to do with you all of a sudden, tell him off

Good riddance to him. And if he ever tries coming to you asking for help, I'd just tell him to F off; and threaten to press charges for harassment.

Your life doesn't suck, your deadbeat dad does

He's a jerk. Sorry, but you'll have to write his nasty ass off.

Make sure he has no ties to your family. He'll eventually try to contact you or your family, but only when he needs money or something else, that's it. He abandoned you, why should you show him kindness he doesn't even want, or allow him to be in a family he wants nothing to do with.

Sweetheart, sometimes you just can't help people and the way they are – you just can't fix stupid. You did a good, from-the-heart act, and he's rejected it twice. As hard as it is, it may be time to let go of the notion that his heart will soften because of a grandchild. I'm sorry, OP; FYL indeed.

Why would he be embarrassed? He should walk in there like a champ and buy the biggest box they have.

This asshole is not worth your time. Congrats on the baby though! At least you're trying to be a better dad than your own.
