I Want To Be My Kid?s Only Parent

Rather than being a force of stability, the times my own father did show up served only to temporarily disrupt the pleasant routines my mother and I had established. He arrived unannounced at our back door one day when I was 8, and I thought he was an escaped convict who?d come to bludgeon us to death. I?d screamed, and my mom came running, pausing for a moment to laugh, ?No, honey, that?s just your dad.? My father came to see us several times over the course of my growing up. I remember these visits as short and uncomfortable. (His large beard embarrassed me to no end.)
