Comments on: What is Love? Baby, Don’t Hurt Me http://www.prodigalmagazine.com/what-is-love-baby-dont-hurt-me/ Online Magazine For The Everyday Christian Wed, 08 Feb 2012 00:24:21 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Dave Fraedrich http://www.prodigalmagazine.com/what-is-love-baby-dont-hurt-me/#comment-70103 Dave Fraedrich Tue, 09 Nov 2010 23:11:38 +0000 http://prodigalmagazine.com/?p=2731#comment-70103 Peter's father did not leave him and has never left him. I am Peter's father and his mother, Valerie, left me. When she left she took Peter and his older brother Michael with her. I tried and begged and pleaded to reconcile the marriage but she would not. Valerie even violated court orders by not letting me visit with Peter and Michael. Over the years I paid child support and sent birthday and Christmas cards. I even sent money so I could be mailed a school picture, but one never came. There is a lot that needs to be said between Peter and myself. I have sent Peter friend requests via Facebook and e-mails, all without a reply. I have sought out the ability to contact both Peter and Michael without them ever giving me the courtesy of a reply. I never left Peter, in fact I've been at his door for the last 10 years knocking waiting for him to let me in. Once he opens the door we can sort out the facts. Love is a verb, now let's see if Peter will open the door and let the love of his father into his life.
