If you’re a single co parenting father, this one is for you. If you’re not a single co parenting father, sit this one out and exercise your right to remain silent to prevent speaking on something you have not experienced first hand. @CoachGregAdams is living proof of how The Free Agent Lifestyle highly benificial to men with children post divorce from a marriage and or break up with children out of wedlock. CGA has showed and proved that men who focus on themselves for themselves can thrive to become better, thus allowing men who are fathers to be able to provide for their respective children on their own respective parenting time for the long term. A man with children should not seek out another woman to be in a relationship to help him raise his child(ren). One valid reason why not is that is selfish. Expecting a woman who lacks that biological connection to care for your child(ren) as if they are from her is placing a high burden of responsibility on her. Placing that moral obligation upon a woman who is not the mother is egotistical and reckless. There is also the cognitive dissonance factor many women and men do not take into consideration for the short term and or the long term when attempting to cohabitate. At some point a situation will arise when the man’s child(ren) and the “new” woman will get into a verbal argument, most likely when she will try to assert parental authority. Words will get said in that moment that will upset and anger each side. The man who is the father will have to intervene and make a decision that will carry long term effects, even if they can’t be seen right away the effects will be present. Depending on how bad the confrontation was and other circumstances, it may have to result in that relationship ending. This ties into direct correlation to all three tenants of The Free Agent Lifestyle which are no cohabitation, no long term relationship, and no marriage. It is not in a man’s best interest to attempt to manage both his child(ren) with the emotions of a woman who is not the child(ren)’s mother in the same household. Depending on how the temperamental the actual mother is and when she finds out about an incident like that, it will result in more trips to Family Court for Child Custody modification that you will not like, Law enforcement involvement, DCFS investigations, and possible child support hearings that you will also not like. Just look at CGA as an example, boss up for yourself to thrive in life so your kids can benefit from your self improvement. That is how kids should see their father, dad, being loved right by you making good decisions in your life which will create positive impact on your child(ren) and for yourself. I understand the biological imperative of wanting to be with women. In this case, compartamentalize that and respectfully go to the JUCO. Keeping that part of your adult life as long as it’s being done respectfully and with aftercare is alright to do for you, as long as no one is being hurt by it. It is also best to compartamentalize especially while your child(ren) are a minor/minors so their mother, or in some instances mothers, do not become jealous, vindictive, and or spiteful about it and attempt to drag you into family court and child support, and or make harassing calls to DCFS aka CPS to have social workers come to your home, hearings with intent of weaponizing it against you to irritate and humiliate you to the court, your kids, and to the general public. This is something CGA has helped me to learn in the past few years and it is something I wanted to put out to those of you here who have the intellectual capacity to understand and put it to use for your respective lives too. Don’t just take my word for it, really listen to what CGA is saying and put what he says to use for the improvement of your respective lives so that you will own your life, and let no one outside of you own your life. A key aspect to being able to boss up is to think clearly and to focus on yourself. Do for your child(ren), but also do it for yourself first so that you and your child(ren) can thrive in your individual lives as autonomous people while still being a family together.
