[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]the key is that OP says her husband's father was absent. he likely has unresolved issues relating to that, plus he didn't have the father figure model that many children had. my guess is he doesn't recognize how lacking in the father department he is and figures being physically present is enough. You need to talk to him and don't tell him he's a bad father and don't compare him to your dad. talk from a point of view where you'd like to have more of a partner and you'd like to help him discover the joys of connecting emotionally with his children [/quote] Hell no. He is an adult and ought to be allowed to relate to his children as he sees fit. Women who are always trying to mold their husbands and children into supposedly being “better” versions of themselves are just miserable excuses for human beings.[/quote]
