Letter to the Editor - Sometimes fathers forced out

Letter here. The Post published my letter about Vincent Carroll's column in which he claimed millions of selfish and irresponsible fathers abandon their children. Here's the letter:

"I’m sorry to hear The Denver Post did not get the memo about the purpose of Father’s Day: to celebrate fathers. Instead, The Post chose to publish a dad-bashing column by Vincent Carroll, who blames “millions” of “irresponsible or self-centered” dads for neglecting or abandoning their children.

Carroll makes no distinction between a father who abandons his children and a father forced out of his children’s lives by a custody ruling favoring mom. As long as we view these two as the same, we will never solve the problem of family breakdown.

Perhaps next Father’s Day, The Post could publish a piece that actually celebrates dads."
