From convicted murderers to drug dealers, some of these dads have been locked away for most of their children’s lives.
Scottie Barns’ dad was a convicted drug dealer, and she’s never even been told “I love you” from him. He spent most of his life locked up, so Scottie knows the deep-rooted pain associated with growing up without a father.
