Scott Waterworth deadbeat, liar, abusive, drug addict ripoff Newport News Virginia

Since this all began, Scott has made great strides to right his wrongs. He has since remarried and found happiness in his life. I am proud of the changes he has made to improve his life and hope to see him continue on this path. I wish him and his new bride nothing but the best.

Since this whole mess began, Scott has made great strides to right his wrongs. He has remarried and found happiness in his life. I hope he continues on this path since I always believed he was a good man who got off course. I am proud of the changes he has made and wish him and his new wife nothing but the best!

Wow: Now I have to respond. You people know nothing of me and that is obvious. I have said nothing that the grandchildren do not already know. They have seen the choking and the bruises. So if you want to lash at me for raising my children, feel free. It only shows what kind of people you are.

You are right, I may have to meet.....but please know that you will not get my energy. People like you feed on negative energy so this is the last thing I write. Maybe you both should use your energy to better use, like raising your own children to the best of your abilities......

Scott and I do not have a relationship because he told me he beat my daughter and I saw what happened to the grandchildren. I was an eyewitness to the whole thing, not you. If you did witness and of the situation...shame on you.
If in the meantime, he has changed and is good to you...YEA! I wish you joy...now that is the end

I'm confused! Donna from Belmont, NH *da da ding ding ding ding ding* you did stoop by responding to the above post. Not "stooping" would be not responding.

As for the bizarre statement you will never know Jackie, rest assured you WILL know her because she is marrying your grandchildren's father! Perhaps you need to get out of New Hampshire and start a life of your own.

You certainly do not act your age, nor are you the best role model for your grandchildren. You should've stepped up to the plate when your husband left you, and taken responsibility for your daughters when they were young. They should've been taught at home how to respect people, to refrain from infidelites, and to exercise and take care of themselves on a regular basis. The reason why your daughters are in the mess they are in now is because of YOU! Shame on you.

This is getting kind of personal to be attacking me huh?...You do not know me and thankfully never will. I will not stoop to respond to you, Jacqueline

I cannot believe that Dawn and her mother are taking so much time to write about a man whose business is not of any concern to the general public. Do you know how to live like civilized adults and respect people - including your children and grandchildren?

No. You are both so quick to judge me. Scott and I are getting married. I've been with him almost 2 years and knew him for years before that. No, he is not perfect but dealing with this craziness on a regular basis has not helped matters for anyone concerned. He loves his kids. None of your remarks,which might make a better point if you took the time to spell correctly, are doing anything to help your personal matters which you have chosen to make a public spectacle. I responded to the original posting because it was wrong. This whole thing is wrong.

Would you be happy if the kids read this someday? Is this the way to show them how to handle life and broken relationships in a mature way?

Let's all just try to get along for all of the children involved so that we can break the cycle of ugliness and help them to grow up to be emotionally healthy adults. Ones that would never do what we all have been doing.

Why are you all ripping each other apart. Scott neeeds to go his own way and Dawn needs to go hers.
The children on the other hand, they can not get out of this. They love both parents and do everything they can for both parents to love them. That is all they want is for mom and dad to love them, they didn't do anything wrong.

Other people see things like this and talk and the children know that both Dawn and Scott are at odds. Scott doesn't speak nicely of Dawn nor Dawn of Scott. The children know, they hear both sides.

Presently, Dawn has a wonderful marriage and the children are happy being there. They love to spend time with their father also. Too bad when things go wrong, he blames them for what happens. It is not his fault, nothing in his life has been.

Too bad you all can't get along for the sake of the kids.

I guess you must listen to everything Scott says and believe it. hahahahahahahaha....Scott owes over $5000.00 to child support. Or, you think you know him beause he tell you lies and you believe them. I have seen the VA child wupport website and know what he owes. You need to get a life and grow up or maybe you should stop smoking the wacky tobackie that is available to you

Yeah, he pays his child support regularly. If rarely and regularly mean the same thing to you than, yes, he pays regularly. If he was paying regularly (by court standards) he wouldn't have gotten served court papers outside my home. You know, right before he drove into someone's work vehicle while driving his girlfriend's minivan.

I did not cause our divorce, I did not leave our children alone for hours - EVER!! I was not compliant with being in a marraige where my husband would make life altering decisions without discussing it with me first. It was, in fact, his drug use that got him kicked out of the military. He was the drinker in the family, if you knew me, you would know I rarely drink. I have no weight issues, infidelities, or illnesses that impacted this marriage. As a matter of fact, I have never met you. You now nothing about me. So you are basing all your beliefs in me on what a habitual liar says.

I wish him happiness in his life so he could finally settle down and have a parental relationship with his children before they begin harboring resentment towards him. It's a shame that he continues to put himself before his children.

By the way, I am a happiliy married woman. You should do your homework before voicing your ignorance.

First of all, Scott Waterworth is a kind person. He adores his children, pays his child support regularly, and for the past several years has begged and pleaded with Dawn to ease up on the tensions in her household.

The divorce was caused by Dawns infidelity, drug and alcohol abuse, her constant weight issues and her illness. Dawn would continiously neglect the children by leaving them alone for hours at a time, while she caroused with other men. One time, the police were called due to one child wandering around aimlessly near the highway. Child was 2 years old at the time! Absolutely heartbreaking for Scott.

Now, Scott is in a peaceful relationship, and Dawn cannot stand this. She claims she is in a "loving relationship" now but this is totally and utterly false. When Scott calls his children faithfully every evening he has to endure hearing Dawn and her lover scream at each other, while the children cry. Scott isn't immune from Dawn and her lovers hostility and verbal abuse either.

In closing, anyone reading the garbage written by Dawn, please disregard. Scott Waterworth is trustworthy, pays his bills, does NOT use drugs and basically a wonderful human being. Thank you.

Scott from the moment we met was abusive and a user. He never paid for anything but always got what he needed from Dawn.
When they had their first child, he he was there until that evening then he left and didn't come back until both mother and child were discharged. He left for CA with the Navy 5 days later for 10 weeks. He called collect and screamed to send him money, forget the bills, Mind you the collect calls were made to my phone, over $1500 dollars that was not repaid.

I have seen Scott take money out of Dawn's purse, then bring her a present to say, "Look what I got you"... When the marriage was finally splitting up, I asked him if he ever hurt or bruised her and he told me, "You know how easily she flies across the room when you touch her". Yes he had bruised her but said he did not know that was an offense. The use of ignorance works for him, he looks the part.

When I visit the children and he calls, he asks to tqalk to me. Why? I do not know. I certainly have nothing to say to him adn yet he puts the children right in the middle by telling them to hand me the phone. He does not treat the children well and maintains no relationship with the very beings that he should worship...instead of himself.

Since you, Jacqueline, have never seen Scott in action and only hear his side of the story, you should not be so quick to judge Dawn, who has done nothing but try to give those children a relationship with their father. She has gone to lengths I would not go to never say malicious things about him and to always make the children respect him, even though he is nothing more than a donor.

He pays no child support, and I know you feel tht is your money but it belongs to the children for their house, food , clothing, haircuts, shoes, school supplies and whatever else they need. That is not a father but a rip-off

He is your live in boyfriend, you can hardly be unbias. You have no idea what has gone on in Dawn and Scott's lives, you have only known him for a year . I have been in a loving relationship with Dawn for over four years and since the beginning of all these court cases started. I can say that she is a wonderful, loving mother who is only protecting her children from the constant disappointments of thier father.

If he is so devoted, why has he not seen his kids in over a month? He has had scheduled visitation that he has missed. he has already asked if he could drop the kids off early for this visit so he can run home early. He hasn't paid child support since November and at this time owes about $5800.00. Pennsylvania is setting up a case against him right now. If that's not deadbeat, I don't know what is. As a metter of fact, the definition would be a parent who odes not financially support thier child - Scott.

The fact of the matter is there are judges and lawyers who can verify everything we write. He couldn't have custody, not even if he tried. You have no idea what your talking about.

I would suggest instead of searching sites like this for his name (which proves you know what type of person he is) you should re-evaluate your own situation.

The most important people of all this mess are the kids, they don't deserve everything that has happened and certainly don't appreciate it. We do not put him down in front of them and would appreciate it if you could stop putting her down in front of them. They have both told us of situation when both of you have made negative remarks about her while they were listening. The kids are very loyal to thier mother. She has been a constant source of strength and love for them, exactly what a good mother should be.

Dawn has been very supportive of the fact that they have a relationship with thier father. At times, I feel, going overboard and pushing them to talk to him or visit with him.

The fact that you think she still loves him is unbelievable. She feels sorry for him that he is 33 and still does not have his life together. She feels he should make more of an effort to better his relationship with the children.

We wish he would act like a parent! That's all....

It is very sad when people that have no real case against someone in life other than they can no longer control that person, have to resort to typing false and malicious statements about them on the internet.

As an outside party to the twisted situation that Scott's ex-wife has created for them, I would like to offer my own comments.

For a man that was labeled as both abusive and a deadbeat, all I can state is that Dawn has done a fine job over the years of trying to use the legal system to prove these things. Unsuccessfully, of course, since the system is for finding the truth and punishing real crimes. Ultimately, she has been defeated.

Rather than sink to a level that I find repulsive, I will just say that there are many many examples I could share of a sad woman who has created her own unhappiness.

Scott is a devoted father who could have had custody of his children, and would still like nothing better. He chose not to drag their mother's dirty laundry out in public and saved them from the pain and embarrassment this would have caused.

The real issue Dawn has with Scott is that he doesn't love her and isn't under her thumb anymore. Fact is Slander doesn't change that.
