haven't caught up just come on to grasp for advice, even though im always asking the same question 
dd been mentioning her dad again today, he's coming up tomorrow.
in the car she said 'why doesn't he come up more often?' i told her to tell him tomorrow that she wants to see him more and have a chat with him about it.
She then said 'is it because he can't afford petrol because he doesn't have a job?' I said 'he has a job but he's not got any money', lots of questions about what he was spending his money on. I eventually said 'I dont know poppet, he's just not good at managing money' she said 'he just wants to spend it on other things and not see me'
So, I kind of said, oh poppet we all love you, he loves you too, just no money blah blah.
BUT, should I in future lie and say he does want to come up more often but has no money (he has normally paid job just spends his money on beer/fags/??dunno really). This doesn't feel right, I don't want to lie to her really.
OR tell the truth - he's a selfish bastard who prefers buying crap than seeing you. Not likely I'll say that for obvious reasons.
So what do I say???? She brought it up AGAIN later saying I miss my daddy then she asked Phil if she could call him daddy. He said of course you can poppet if you want to.
How on earth do you explain that daddy is a cunt without saying that or worrying her little head?!!
Sorry, i've asked this question about a 100 times.
