He must be willing because he loves his child. If he's not interested create a plan to move forward in your life without his participation. I agree that the children could become scarred when attempts to forge a relationship fails. They are your top priority and their well being is what's most important. Do what your heart is telling you to do and you'll be fine. I don’t recommend trying to convince him to play a role. He must be willing because he loves his child.

It requires an extra dose of confidence and patience. I say take baby steps through the process after you've had a conversation with him about what is good for your child. That is possibly the first step to a successful co-parenting situation. He must be on board and have his child's best interest at heart. If he doesn't it will not work in a way that benefits the child. Co-parenting is definitely NOT for the faint of heart. It requires an extra dose of confidence and patience.

I recently invited my children's dad to meet them (he has never done so since they were born) and he did not come. I cannot keep trying to forge a relationship that could ultimately leave my children scared. A child could lose his self confidence from a parent who continually rejects him.
