Randy couldn't face the next few months thinking of his children without the presence of their father in their lives, even though he knew it was for the best. Their tender ages left them vulnerable to feelings of confusion and abandonment. How were they to understand that absence, and what explanation would they be given while he was away?
Would they adapt and cope and be just fine without him? They would have to, he supposed, and that is what upset him the most. Life would just go on, whether he was there or not.
He was still dealing with issues due to the consistent absence of his father. It angered him that he had put himself in a position to let that happen with he and his children. These issues had fueled his guilt and shame that led to his addiction, which in turn had placed him where he was, in drug rehab.
However, he harbored deep blame and resentment for Katherine. She had threatened and pushed Randy past his breaking point. She deliberately threatened him with the loss of his children unless he changed.
