A loving mother you are indeed
Some would say that parental love the kind of unconditional love is normally only directed towards the child not the father as well. I am a man and I speak from someone who would not run away if my girlfirend fell pregnant i would stand by her and my family. But you seem to be veyr forgiving to your ex, it is comendably for the childs sake at least

Your diary really helps us understand the whole situation. in my own work,
I have come across a couple of cases where the man is somehow irresponsible towards the child that was conceived through him. But your diary is helping me understand the experience better.

I understand how you do feel in this situation. To care a child without a father is not easy but you have to believe that you could do it as best as you can.
"Faith changes facts". Hopefully one day he will come to you, at least to share the responsibility on Sophia. A good lesson here, next time when you need a man, make sure the man loves you because the combination between love and desire will much probably carries responsibility together. That's all I can say. Take care. Bye.

This is heartbreaking, MissJohn.
What an incredible post! Hopefully, this jerk will decide to do the right thing and come to recognize the things in life that REALLY matter.

It's a shame
that Sophia's father has been so hard on you, for lack of a better word.
But please know that the only thing Sophia needs is for you to love her, care for her, and above all else, be honest with her. As she grows she will wonder what happened before she came along, and as she grew older. If you are honest with her and she understands the actions of her father, in time, it will be the best gift you could give her, literally or figuratively, in that she'll know that she was never at fault for any of his actions. Sophia can/will be an amazing girl/woman, and you will be the reason. :-)
