A man who doesn't pay child support and also disrespects his baby mama in front of the children and disregards her feelings. A man who believes that having a job means that any form of child care is not his job. And who gets 'overwhelmed' by taking care of his children for a few hours but doesn't understand that the mother takes care of them night and day with no breaks.
Mom: can you please help me by giving me a break?
deadbeat dad: give YOU a break? I work all day. All you do is sit on your ass at home and watch kids. Sounds easy to me.
(then on seperate day when man is watching kids)
Deadbeat dad: this kids are driving me crazy. I'm so tired.
Mom: you've only been with them for an hour.

"That Dave is a deadbeat dad, I hate him."
by George W. Bush July 9, 2003
A father who does not provide for a family that he was part of creating. Does not have morals or a responsible enough nature to realize how difficult he is making life for his family.
My husband works and keeps his money to himself and decides what he is going to pay and when. He wanted to get married, he wanted to have children and now that we do he isn't stepping up to the plate to ensure our future. I am 6 months pregnant, we have a two year old and I work over 40 hours a week trying to make ends meet. For 4 months he made excuses as to why he was not making any money and yet he takes all the credit playing himself out to be the provider. There should be a definition for a dead beat husband who causes his wife so much grief that she wants to get a divorce and then he becomes the deadbeat father.

A sperm donor who decides being a father to his children is no longer of interest or a priority to him. A person who forces hardship and hurt upon his kids due to his selfishness and lack of care towards their quality of life and childhood years. A person with garnished wage orders is the ultimate deadbeat. The state has to step in and care for his children bc he won't voluntarily contribute. No one is more heartless and selfish than a parent who has their child go without so they can have more. A person who fears exposure of reality and the truth because their choices and actions are so shameful and disgusting.
Other possible synonyms: narcissist, sociopath, a shallow empty walking corspe with a dad costume on, childhood stealer, a regret to give your heart to, a mistake to trust or believe, a frequent disappointment, the ugliest form of a coparent.

The deadbeat dad walked around the airport with his pilot costume on enjoying the respect and idolizations he received from passengers and flight attendants. Wearing a costume was his escape from the reality of the truth which was that he was a childhood damager and innocent offspring heartbreaker.

A pitiful excuse of a sub-human being. It is likely that you will find this said sub-human in a bar, drinking and playing pool with an unattractive and probably overweight piece of trailer trash you wouldn't want around your kids. Although, this is probably fine because the deadbeat doesn't even come around, so it's probably no big deal. (See barfly) This barfly which is often associated with a deadbeat father probably has child problems of her own. Commonly, the barfly's spawn are from numerous fathers and the children are probably in the father's/state's care, in fact, the barfly probably screwed up so much there's no possible way she could ever get her kids back, even if the said father of the barfly's children were to die.
The deadbeat father can often be seen wearing $150 sunglasses(probably oakley's because he's suffering from Peter Pan syndrome and wants to live in the 90's) and is sporting a $300 cell phone. He probably is unemployed, drawing unemployment, and works under-the-table,(to help support his and his barfly's habit), which he freely admit to the judge because of his dwindling IQ due to the heavy amounts of beer and marijuana comsumption.
Due to lack of functioning braincells, he is unable to remember the children or their birthdays and will often call on the wrong date if he even calls at all. Of course, because the deadbeat is so self centered, he believes he is a wonderful father and believes other fathers should be just like him.

1)Michaeal K Baucom Jr (he thinks he's famous pool shark)from Seneca SC is a prime example of a deadbeat dad.
2)Deadbeat dads litter the world for decent hard working parents.
3)Sally: "Oh my god, did you know that Michael didn't even call his son on his birthday?!"
Sue:"Wow, Michael is SUCH a deadbeat dad"

A man who has no respect for his pregnant (ex) partner, and who, after the child is born, decides to sit on his mountain of cash and assets while the mother and their child live in poverty. He is able to continue with his life as normal (ie dating, going out to the bars, finishing a college degree) while the mother had to give up everything including her college degree because she can't support the child all alone. The deadbeat cares not for anyone but himself, does not want to see his child, believes himself to always be right in every situation, and has an overwhelming sense of self-entitlement. Regardless of his ability to support his child, if he decides he doesn't WANT to, then he's not going to.
Even though the father of my child makes a great living as an engineer, he would rather his child live in poverty with the mother and does not desire to see his child at all. What a deadbeat dad.

(n) A male who fathers a child and makes no contributions to its rearing, providing neither emotional nor financial help to his family. Often unmarried to the child's mother or divorced, usually resented by the offspring.
1. Mary's father skipped town when she was five and she never heard from him again. What a deadbeat dad!
2. My dad's always off drinking or gambling. The lousy deadbeat's never around.
