Some parents just aren't interested in their kids for a variety of reasons. I'm not sure what made me change to caring about my child but I not only didn't want her when her mom was pregnant, but I didn't like her much the first 8 months or so. I even tried to persuade her mother to abort the pregnancy.
I look back on that time of my life now and can't imagine where my head was. I'm thankful for my daughter and love her more than life itself but it certainly wasn't always that way. I snapped out of it but I'm sure that many people don't.
