Aren't his children young? Teens would maybe be OK in understanding “needing” to not spend Father's Day with them, but definitely NOT younger children. Even children of broken/discordant families are with their father on Father's Day.

Negative, chief. Maybe in your experience, but my family rarely knows what STATE I'm in, much less where I am on Father's Day. And on my birthdays, even I don't know where I'm going to be, most of the time, except it will involve fishing.

Some of us live like that. Without moment-to-moment contact with families, sometimes without weekly or even monthly contact with families.
