[quote=Anonymous]You tell the child that when you found out you were pregnant you chose to raise her by yourself. It was the best choice you ever made. You love her and are incredibly proud of a what a strong, smart, beautiful, amazing person she is. You don't act as though there is something missing from your life. The two of you are a complete family. You make sure that your DD has lots of positive, loving adults in her life. When you need to, you explain that you had a relationship with a man that made a baby--her. He wasn't ready to be her father and so he's not in her life. He's her biological father, but he's not her Dad, because a Dad is someone who takes care of his kid. Then you go back to the fact that the two of you are a complete family, you love her so much, etc.[/quote]
