Idk why you felt the need to reply to me. Either you get my stance or you don't. So let's just leave it be. You not him or one of his kids.

However, as you rightly point out if a father was really interested in his kids he would not move to a different country and not see them for 11 years. There is a reason they are not answering calls - they are resentful for being abandoned. I too have been divorced and have 5 kids, 3 from the first marriage and 2 from the second. It is true that a young family keeps you very busy - I can relate to all of that. The chores are endless. At the end of the day, it is your choice how often you see your kids, how much effort you invest and whether you keep a relationship with them. It comes down to what you value and what is important to you above all else. There is a high price to pay, but it is possible to have a great relationship with adult kids even when they are remote.

But I do know that divorce laws and family courts can make bad situations very much worse without even trying. Tzsyu may be a cad or a victim. I just don’t know. But in terms of his boxing career, he was a good and memorable fighter, and one people enjoy watching on YouTube over and over. I don’t recall him engaging in a lot of F-bombing his opponents with hideous imprecations about mayhem and cannibalism.

This isn't about Kostya's relationship with their mother. It's about Kostya's relationship with his sons.
Splitting with their mother doesn't mean he had to move 9000 miles away and spend more than half of their lives away from his sons. If you care about your children you'll do anything to be part of their lives. Period. If your wife dumps you, you don't just abandon your children. You get your own place somewhere nearby and be a real man by being a dad to your kids.

Glad you seem to like your new family in Russia enough to stick around but you can't be mad at Tim or Nikita for not answering your calls when you bailed to a different country for most of their lives.

Yea. I dont like stuff like this. It's two sides to every story. What if biologically he found out that Tim's brother is not his son and the women cheated on him and dragged him through the courts ? I wouldn't blame him if that's the case but we don't know. Men don't have a platform to express their opinion especially against women without getting totally dragged.
