Well, such is the duty of a father.
I was picturing more of a car accident scenario though, not simply 'living apart' from them. That would hurt, and probably ruin the remainder of my life, but I'd still feel a duty to support and guide the kids.
Duty and purpose are two different things. When you conflate the two, that's when you see men cutting their lives short when their wive's decide to look for a different man and take everything. It's also what happens when totalitarian states muster million-man armies and lead countless souls to the slaughter. Their purpose and their duty is one and the same.
I would caution you against such an assumption. It leads not only to ruin but a lack of virtue.
No woman could take my kids away from me, only make me live somewhere else. They'll always be my kids. And really, that would have a lot of upsides lol.
That's true. But it doesn't take away the problem of your losing your purpose in life when you are not even allowed to actually father your own children. It's a really bad place to derive your purpose from. Trust me. It can take many years to work that shit out.

That's entirely up to me. I can choose to spend 3/7 days with them, or only show up once in a while. We at least have that much.
If she found a way to remove visitation/sharing custody? Yeah, I'd spend my days fighting like hell, and furious. Then I'd rustle up some daddy-issues at the local bar and feel better.

Confederate flag 'looking' tiles to be changed in subway
The MTA says it is going to "modify" tiles in a Manhattan subway station that people have complained look like Confederate Flags.
The pattern of tiles have been in the Times Square station for almost 100 years. The architects are said to have installed them to pay homage to the Southern roots of former New York Times newspaper head Adolph S. Ochs.
The MTA has claimed the tiles actually are meant to honor Times Square’s nickname as the "Crossroads of the World" and are not Confederate Flags.

Well bully for you, but why do you think that makes you more likely to do your duty than I? I can be a nihlistic hedonist and still recognize that since Her Majesty defends the right, thus I must defend Her Majesty, in order to retain my autonomy from the mobs of Church Ladies and Commies.

Excuse me, but the Postmodern Cultural Marxists may have emanted from France, but they didn't go from there to Canada, they went to the USA, and then it spread here from down there, we're not the stronghold of the PCM's, America is.
None of this sort of thing ever starts in conservative ol' Canader, it always comes here from the revolutionary republic to our south, and I was aroumd in the 1970's to witness it happening.

Whether the original Marxists or the Cultural Marxists, the Lefties here never come up with anything original, they just latch on to whatever the Lefties in the USA are on about, which, in the 1970s, PCMs spread from there to here.
It's not like Yale takes its cues from the University of Toronto, quite the opposite,

Also would point out, I've been saying that the Leftists were all inherent Jacobins and Bolsheviks, long before any of you had ever heard of Jordan Peterson.
Mind you, back during OWS when I was saying that Madouche & Co were a bunch of Bolshies, all the DCFers cried that I was a "1% opressor!"
