Cmama, I see you're in a very hard place at the moment. Relationships with our parents can be difficult at the best of times.

You are the best Mumma for your little girl - she chose you for a reason. The fact that her father chooses not to have anything to do with her is HIS loss, not hers.

I think talking to a professional about how you are feeling is the best. If you need to chat right now, call Lifeline on 13 11 14.

They have people available 24 hrs a day, trained people, who can talk to you about how you are feeling, and perhaps refer you on to someone else.

Good luck and thinking of you.
