Intentional neglect by your biological parent

My experience may parallel that of many children, and my heart aches for all those that have experienced the same phenomenon in their lives. I have made a lot of choices in my life, both good and bad, but the one I didn't choose was to be born into the world where my own father disavowed my existence, and went so far as to outrightedly ignore me. And while I am 38 years old, I am sure there are others that still feel this pain, even as adults.

I encourage you to share your thoughts; unfortunately, in this case, there may be comfort in numbers, and I want to know I am not alone, and neither are you.

If you feel so compelled, please write me directly:
