Happy Fathers' Day to all the men who have chosen to "man up" and take responsibility for the children you've created and to do all you could to give them a loving, wholesome, well-disciplined family life, especially if you chose to stick with a difficult marriage for the sake of your children. You're the kind of men who make this country great. You deserve every bit as much respect and admiration as the vets returning home from Iraq and Afghanistan.
To those who took an opposite path, who shirked your paternal responsibility, who left your kids as soon as the going got tough, what's the matter with you?
