I don't regret the decision as I was a single parent for along time before he physicallyl left. Whenever he came home from work, he wasn't interested in interacting with his children, refused to speak with me like another adult, and when he did talk to me it was to ask when dinner would be ready, or if I had done his washing...

The girls are alot happier now, as there is now regular routine in the house & I am alot more happy. I couldn't handle seeing my girls wanting their dad's attention, with him ignoring them. That just broke my heart. Now at least I know that they get all the attention they want. The girls do see their dad, but it is now at the stage where my eldest is saying she doesn't want to see him at all.
