I've been a single mum to my teenage daughter for 3 years with very little support, financial or practical, from her dad.
Although he was pretty useless when he lived with us I liked having a second opinion on decisions made for our daughter and reassurance that I was doing the right things for her.
I miss that.
My daughter is amazing but she struggles with anxiety and I can't help but think this is my fault and if her dad was more involved it would be better for her but if I ask then he makes it all about him and says how she doesn't ask him for help so why should he get involved if it's going to help me. Pointless twat.
Don't know what my point is really, just wanted to vent. Thanks for reading.
