My dad made me who I am today..

Cause him never being there..

Made me that much stronger..

[TheSmokinApples]

hey my dad is an alcoholic. Throughout my childhood, I always was taught he was a bad guy. However I love him to death. My dad might have an addiction does not change the fact that he loves me. I do admire the times he does call me drunk. It's still time I get to spend with him. I think a lot of people misunderstand this song. No matter what Billy says about his dad, he loves him unconditionally, and accepts him.

@TheSmokinApples My Dad was a severe functioning alcoholic who in spite of his addiction was always able to maintain a well paying job as a heavy equipment mechanic. He drank up all his money and was real bad about writing checks he couldn't always cash, but he was a good man underneath all of that! He could charm the birds out of the sky and was a real people person, even at his worse with his addiction! I loved him til the day he died from his addiction at 69! I still love him like crazy!!

@KianaaMariee11 i know what ya mean there. never saw my father but it made me a lot stronger for it

[countryboychris23]

u look so much like ur dad

[meehan98]

His eyes are sooooo amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[TragicProdigy10]

I love his eyes.<33

&& I can relate also.. my dad didn't do drinking, or drugs... but his temper and attitude reflected like he did... he was mean and a complete asshole... =/ he claims he wants to be in my life now, but i remember when I was 10 years old and I begged my mother to divorce him, and our lives have been so much better. He can be my dad, but i don't want him to try to be what he didn't wanna be 5+ years ago.

@KianaaMariee11 ... I can relate to that. Even though we half way across the world from you in America we all are humen. I served in my countries military for almost 12 years now. I bet if my dad ever got to know me he would of been proud. I herd he left for the U.S. when I was only 5 years old. But all in all, Im as strong as ever just like you. My faith has been there and my father is Jesus Christ.... Much love from Russia..... Signed Nikoli

My ma used to drink, she made me realize i do not need drugs or alcohol. I can have fun without 'em, and I don't wanna have my kids go through it. I'd probably end up getting addicted, runs in the family. She is sober now, been a lil more then a year. I'm proud of her.

@rcadag i know how it is not to have a dad my died when i was 4 and if he was still here or lived longer i would not be how i am today and even thou i did not know him so well i still follow in his steps and do some of the same things.
