[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So some of you have shared personal stories but this even happened to the fathers who don't do the things that have been outlined above. I think a lot of the complaining about divorced fathers is similar to the complaining the new mothers do about new fathers. They often think that the father doesn't do it right. I just think that mothers hardly ever give credit to the fathers and even less after the divorce.[/quote]

I posted last night about the many ways in which my ex is a terrible father. It is frustrating, at least partially because when he DOES try, when he chooses to be engaged, he is an amazing dad. Unfortunately, because of other factors in his life that he prioritizes over our child, he only sees her about every 10 days. She used to think he hung the moon, but as he becomes less engaged, she also becomes less engaged. I am disappointed because this is not the father/daughter relationship that I want for either of them, and I know he can do better. I don't get credit just for showing up. I don't see why I should give him credit for doing so. [/quote]

Controlling, bitter ex wives create parent-child estrangements. People who think your kids don't pick up on your "disappointment" in their Father are deluding themselves.[/quote]
