Dd6 saw her dad sunday 23rd dec. Long history of him lettig her down.
new leaf was supposed to be turned as of past 3 months or so. He's done alot of damage to her psycologicaly this yr.
He didn't see her since then. We live half an hour away. Rang last night to say he was going away for a few days, could he come this morning at 9, to take her to the park.
turns up at 9.15, sits in lounge. dd tells him about her xmas. Gets to 9.45 and says right i have to go now as i have to pack. I said 'oh aren't you goign to the park ?'
He replies, 'no i havent got time now, i thought we were just chilling here'
i said 'well i don't think dd realsied that, she thought you were going to the park'
He said 'oh sorry' gave dd hug and left.
dd burst into tears, and said, 'he's done it again mummy, he's let me down, i am so cross and sad'
I was tempted to phone him up and say 'what the fuck was that all about, you could only fit her in for half an hour'
but i couldn't be bothered with the reaction.
Luckily we have a nice resto f the day planned, but I feel so sad for dd, and so bloody cross with him. Why cna't they communicate. Why didn't he say he was pushed for time. WHY does he bother living?
