[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]From Dad's perspective, breaking the trust is emotionally hard to deal with. If my daughter had done this, I could understand why he is still suffering. Remember, in his mind, he is trying to get over this, but he just can't (yet). [/quote]

You’re immature and should not be raising children.[/quote]
dp.. I think maybe it's because the dad is still furious and doesn't want to talk to the DD. Sometimes, you need  time to cool off before you can talk reasonably. I know that's how I am.

Having stated that, two weeks seems like a lot of time.   I bet the DH also holds grudges a lot.

I know how people like this are because my dad is just like this. He has no friends, and most of us kids don't really like to spend much time with him. It's sad.

I inherited this trait from my dad, but I recognize it (now), and try not to be this way, especially to my kids.

Your DD will end up disliking her father, and their relationship will never be close.  Ask him if that's the type of relationship he wants with his daughter.

I had to have the same conversation with my DH about how he was with DD - what kind of relationship do you want with your kids?   He's changed since then.  My sister also had a similar conversation with her DH. He was also quite harsh.

There's a fine line between coddling your kids and being a supportive parent.  Being supportive doesn't mean coddling.  She was punished appropriately. That should be the end of that.

However, she also needs to understand that she has lost some trust from her dad. She needs to earn that back somehow.[/quote]
