I lived with my Mom and her husband in New Jersey (I'm in a college dorm now in NY), and my dad, quite literally is a bum in SC, living off of money from the military that I don't even think he deserves. I've seen him once since my freshman year in high school, when I flew down there to visit him, who was living with his brother and his wife (the aunt and uncle). He has no car or anything, he lost his liscence I believe in the late 80s for a DUI or something. He's a nice guy, and he means well enough. He's a nice man, and loves my mother and I, but he's just a failure, and he knows it. My stepfather is an asshole though, and though not a complete failure financially, he fails as a human. He doesn't support me, financially or otherwise (in fact, I think berates me would be more applicable), so I could really give a shit about him.
My older (half) brother, on the other hand, never knew his father, as my mother decided he wasn't real good "father" material, and he took off to California one day, without my Mom and his son. She has no idea whether the man is actually alive or not, and he made no effort to find his now grown son at all. My brother, mother and I are very close though.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
