[quote=Anonymous][quote]You seem very concerned about the social life of a four year old. Do you ever spend any one on one time with your child? Do you that no she would even like tennis? Expecting to enroll your four year old in a class so that she can make new friends for you both seems like a lot to put on a little girl. You don't seem to be thinking of her as a real person at all, only certain attributes of a person that can be helpful to you. I hope that you do divorce your wife and maybe she can find someone who will be a real father to this child.[/quote]

you're reading a lot into OP's situatino--he explicitly asked whether he should join the club and do stuff with his daughter on his own--he seems more concerned about his wife refusing to engage with any family social life at all--I don't think its country club versus other socializing, it sounds like OPs wife is checked out--maybe depressed, maybe bored in her marriage , maybe hates her husband, but doesn't want to leave the financial security, who knows.

OP--its a chicken/egg question about whether the changes you've noticed in your marriage and your wife's withdrawal is a cause or an effect of a disappointing marriage but either way she sounds checked out. Is she an engaged mother ?Have you tried couples therapy?  I would go ahead and do social things with your daughter and hope that your wife joins (or encourage her to suggest others) but not to expect it. [/quote]
