Douche Bag Dad (n) (informal)
A divorced male who makes extremely poor decisions concerning the emotional health of his children.
He is someone who refuses to pay child support, cancels his co-parenting
time regularly, and only exists to create turmoil for his
ex-
wife and children due to his sensitive feelings that are hurt easily since he's probably not physically or mentally abusing a female presently. This male is someone who is insecure, co-dependent, controlling, and manipulative. He is someone who dates a younger girl or someone that needs to wear the pants of the house for him. He is also the same guy who
will harass his
ex-
wife, send threatening text messages, threaten and throw "
divorce decrees" in her face, and then falsify a different story for the courtroom when he bailed out by mommy and her money. Be careful ladies, a warning sign might be that he calls his
ex-
wife once a week ,and probably other
ex's. along with stalking, cyber stalking, AND using their job to do so. Beware, these characters are crafty fellows! He thinks he has won the lottery by marrying up and playing the "victim" and projecting such a perfect image to society...whatever, she/he
will soon discover that he is just a douche bag dad.
You know Lynn's
ex-
husband Kent? He is such a "douche bag dad" when he holds the child support check just so he can find out what she's doing. Even when he "performs" like such a great dad for everyone.
The
kid's dad definitely qualifies for the "douche bag dad" of the year award!
