[quote=Anonymous]OP - it is hard and even a very mature 14.5 year old will have little say in making a choice if parent in a court custody situation.  And Dd was advised that it could be turned around on her.
Number one you need to get your own therapist to get professional help in getting yourself on firm ground.  Then you will be able to get sound advice on how to help DD through the coming phases of life with an unbalanced dad,

Get your DD a therapist as this will be her outlet as she matures and recognizes what her Dad is doing is not OK.  It would be a professional who has a relationship with DD.

ItIs much easier for a teen to just be out and involved in her own life and limiting time either dear dad than for a child if 10.

I believe your EX travels a lot do have it written in ad noted that you have right if first refusal to have DD at your place.  BUT zi would also add that it will not change your regular custody time.

A schedule if 2-2-5 has worked well or as well as one could expect DD had noted exactly how much time she had to put up with his behavior.
She will be a clear no more time at age 18 unless he has a sudden recognition of his
mental illness.

You are correct that you must be neutral on dad, unless you have a good reason for safety such as one asking “ to sign and notarize a foreign trip with no dates, itinerary etc, supplied?? “

You can over time acknowledge how DD feels or responds as valid as situations unfold.
It is a process,but if you have an unbalanced SIL, you backup the hard decisions your DD makes for her child or children given the usual 59/50 decisions today.
