| Flint we have a minority group thats on the rise and growing rapidly its SINGLE FATHERS/DADS, and for some of us the task at hand is very humbling. I've had legal custody of my son for over 10 years now and it has truly made me have more respect single moms and their daily struggles, because I have been placed between a rock and a hard place, in a city like Flint I find it disheartining that there is not a homeless shelter for single Fathers in our city, I am sorry there is a womens shelter that will take in Fathers, but they have only one bed and just looking for a place this past weekend I personally talked to two other Fathers who are going thru the same perdicament. As a Vetern of the US Marine Corp and Desert Storm I was under the impression that it would not be a problem to get help but it is, for the first couple of nights we stayed at the local hospital in order to stay warm and safe, but thanks to a few friends they were able to provide temporary shelter for my son while I stay in a homeless shelter, but this has caused another problem, my son and I being away from one another hes been by my side for 10 years. I really hope that this can open up some type of forum so we can get this situation taking care of, so that along with single moms, singles dads will be given the same chances. |
