Divorce is an incredibly devastating emotional and personal challenge, but the reality of being a divorced father brings a unique set of hardships that often go unspoken. In this moving guest feature for Des Moines Mom, author and entrepreneur Brett Penager opens up about the raw, disheartening nature of limited visitation schedules and the painful fear of missing out on his daughter's formative years.
Rather than succumbing to the bitterness or the self-centered habits that often tear fractured families apart, Brett Penager advocates for a shift in perspective. He shares how choosing to be a "victor" instead of a victim allowed him to lead his family with unconditional love, ultimately providing an uplifting roadmap for other single fathers striving to leave a positive, lasting imprint on their children's lives.
