I'm not defending the guy, but as a rational person that isn't willing to jump up in the middle of dinner based on the whines of an 8 year old I realize there could be many different layers to this story and not taking just the perspective of a little girl to dictate my feelings or actions. Kids that age want to feel "helpful", and perhaps she got pissy because he went and grabbed the pajamas before she had a chance to fetch a broom or yardstick. And what she defines as "pushing her", could have just been him brushing into her while she is charging down the hallway....adding the colorful "he hurt my arm" for emphasis, because she may not have liked him to begin with.
If you don't understand kids (especially girls) at that age lie, exaggerate, and overly dramatize a lot of shit when things aren't going their way....then its just further proof how little you know about child rearing.
On a side note, its interesting there aren't any other able bodied men at that house to take care of things if they go awry....sounds like a bunch of vulnerable women ready to be victim for whatever meanie comes there way, but of course in their wisdom(?) they decide to let whatever derelict in their door and then make a big deal about shit later. Like someone else said quite eloquently..."family of fuckups" indeed! 
Lastly, I find it interesting when other people give you shit about your dysfunctional family you don't give a fuck in the least and just pass it off as flaming...but when its ME commenting with hard hitting ideas you go the same route as a little girl and overdramatize my presence with the verbiage of..."nothing but a shit stirrer". Truth DOES hurt, don't it Hamp?
The truth doesn't hurt me in any situation. The truth is the truth is the truth. To deny it or be hurt by it is a futile attempt to suppress reality in favor of fantasy. Unlike some people (namely you), I don't embellish, exaggerate, or lie for any type of gain. If I do any of those things, it's quite obvious that their use is for effect and not to be taken literally in order to deceive.
That's what you do. You run with a hypothetical (of your own creation) and use words like "maybe" "could have" "perhaps" "may (not) have" "might (not) have," etc. to spin a fantasy and then expound on it as if the whole thing is absolute fact simply because you want to convince the dimmer witted lot that you actually know something about the character of your intended target. Furthermore, you're the one chasing my nuts. The only one over-dramatizing anything is you.
Fact: I presented a brief summary of events that happened in the course of approximately one hour.
Fact: You took that short summary and twisted it into a fairy tale that has no basis in reality.
Fact: The only reason you posted in this thread was because of your massive butthurtitis and starstruck nut hugger syndrome.
We all know you love to paint interesting little portraits of the reality that you would like to believe, but your truth is quite twisted. You're not convincing anyone.
It's very low to deny the existence of your children. Just sayin'.
Lol
