[quote=Anonymous] My four year old tells me he doesn't like his Dad. Repeatedly. Kids are smart and should be allowed to feel the way they feel. I have done NOTHING to push my son towards this opinion. I didn't have to because XH is a resplendent asshole, physically intimidating, and short-tempered. I provide all the lies a good Mom does, "Daddy's working," etc. I'm there to feed the kids when they come home from their weekly visits crazy late, unfed, and having gone without nap. When they are older, in their teens, I won't do a thing to pressure them into visiting their father. And, I damn sure won't make weekly calls to ensure that XH gets his pound of flesh and agrees to spend time with the children. Let go, let flow. I'm over being in charge of everything. My XH is no longer a member of my family. I care for myself and my babies. Part of this is respecting these very young people's assessment of their father and the decision-making that comes from what they experience. [/quote]
