So....I'm a single,mum and my dd'sfather won't acknowledge her. It's hard, I work so hard just to stay afloat, I rely on my parents for one night a week babysitting so I can work, and two school pickups (I'm home within an hour of school ending). But my parents act like they can't stand her. They are always telling her off, they have no boundaries but yell at her when she does something wrong (like pick her nose). We have one meal a month with them and they are so disinterested in her, anything she has to say, and just tell her off she doesn't eat much...but all they talk about is my oldest brother.. Literally it's two hours of him...if she tries to talk they ignore her or tell her she is annoying them and she "needs to shut up and eat" they never ever take her out with them because they enjoy spending time with her, she is a lovely, bright, intelligent, funny, kind and sweet child, she is no trouble to be with. Her TA from last year has taken us both under her wing and comes out with us on days out etc just because she misses my dd. She's not a bad child, I just don't know what to do to make my family be kind to her!
