After reading this article and as a mother to one of his children, I have to say, he still feels like a victim in everything that happens to him. I don’t see him taking any responsibility for his actions. He has unfortunately not changed at all. Me and my son have tried all sorts of contact through his childhood, even when he was prisoned in Denmark we visited him, after he went to Thailand we have been visiting many times. Financially we have been helping him because he never had money. But he did not want any contact unless he could gain something from it. Which made my son very sad, he was aware of the lack of interest from his father.
The last we heard from John was when he wanted an unrealistic big amount for his bail, and the only time he did contact us, was when he wanted something, mostly money. There is a reason why he doesn’t have any contact with family and children.. because he chose it.
There is always two sides to one story. I much agree with many of the comment.
