[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, the napping thing is a red flag. Trust your instincts. Two of my friends were molested by family members. Their parents thought that a situation was weird/inappropriate, but didn’t want to rock the boat. I’m not saying this is what your dad is trying to do, but at the very least, he has lost sight of what is appropriate around a child. Park meet ups, lunch at family friendly restaurant-those things sound like good compromises.

One other thought -could this be the early stages of dementia? If he wasn’t always like this, there may be a neurological component.[/quote]

I agree he doesn’t know what’s appropriate around a child anymore. It’s the second time he’s asked "Do you want to take a nap with grandpa?", I hope I shut it down hard enough when I told him absolutely not. Exhaling the tobacco resin around my kid? Heck no. In the same room he just chain smokes marijuana in at night? UGHHHH.

Yeah, we are definitely staying at a hotel or air bnb next time. It’s not even up for debate anymore. [/quote]
