[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They didn’t tell her all the way up to the birth? Surprise, we had a baby?

I’d be pissed too. Not shocking she’s taking it out by ignoring the baby, but she’ll probably come around. It’s just so new. Hopefully you’re validating her feelings that it was wrong for her dad and stepmom to keep it from her, because it was.[/quote]

OP here yes they video called from the hospital and said here's your sister oh and we got married. My DD hasn't been all that close to her dad ever. They get along just fine but it's more of a let's do fun things rather than have a deep meaningful relationship.[/quote]

Then he’s reaping what he sowed and I would tell him as such. It’s on him and the stepmom to fix this and they should start with a sincere apology to your DD for keeping it from her. Your job is to validate your DD’s feelings whatever they may be. Hopefully no one is forcing her to spend time at their house with the baby. [/quote]

Exactly. DD is giving the same thought and effort into the baby as was given into telling her about the baby and marriage. It wasn’t important enough to discuss with her, so it still isn’t. It’s childish…well DD is a child, with a father that started a new life and did not include her in the biggest parts of it.  She may eventually move on and when she ever sees the baby, she may warm up. But her Daddy needs to step up and own this. Apologize sincerely and include her, really include her in his new life. You, Mom can’t fix this. It will just show even more how Dad isn’t doing what HE should do.  You certainly can listen when/if she wants to talk. If there is anyone for you to speak to..it’s ExH.[/quote]
