heres my perspective as a child who doesnt speak to my dad. hes selfish and not there for me but is with my 2 sisters.
he always critises me, and he didnt even contact me on xmas or my 21st birthday. he even got married without tell us till get back from honeymoon..he knows i wont listen to his whinges about how bad my life is...i might be unwell and on morphie - he doesnt care..but i do have a caring,loving dp, a brilliat mother and sisters and brother and adorable nieces and nephews...hes divorced now, his daughters dont really bother with him and i cant stand him.
sorry what im trying to say is she will and i think already does see him for what he is. and she will end up not seeing him at all through his neglect of her...not physically i mean mentally.
she sounds like a bright girl and if this is hurting her id stop her seeing him. hes a div if he cant even spend time with his precious daughter then hes losing out because she will resent and reject him.
hope its gets sorted soon.
love rach xxxxx
