My partner is damaging his daughter's mind, body and soul (follow on thread)

RedStripeLassie · 21/11/2016 14:00

A follow on from my dp doesn't look after his mind, body or soul (Offreds words for the title)
I understand people's anger, sadness and frustration at the situation I'm putting dd in but would appreciate further help as I feel I'm getting somewhere and don't want to lose the momentum and ignore everything.
Thanks to everyone that took time posting and don't feel like you have to again if you feel it's not going anywhere or its falling on deaf ears.

Glad to hear you're okay :) I hope it all works out for the best in the end Flowers

Red I don't blame you at all - it did seem to become a bit of a witch hunt.

Wishing you, your DD & your DH all the best for the future Flowers

Hey red how are you? How was this week? I'm sure I'm not the only person thinking about you and hoping you and DD are ok.

RedStripeIassie · 03/12/2016 12:18

Me and dd are ok. We are away (without him) for a few days. Too stressful at home. Things are moving on.
Thanks.

ElspethFlashman · 03/12/2016 12:19

Good to hear things are developing. Flowers

Costacoffeeplease · 03/12/2016 12:21

Flowers enjoy the break

HardcoreLadyType · 03/12/2016 17:22

Take care. Flowers

I don't really want to restart this thread but just to let anyone know who was really, genuinely concerned for my dd that stuff happend and I chucked him out. He's gone.

HardcoreLadyType · 11/12/2016 08:17

Well done, Red. Of course you know you are doing the right thing for your DD. I know it's hard, though, realising you have to give up hope that he will care enough to change.

Flowers for you and Cake for DD.

RedStripeIassie · 11/12/2016 08:26

Thanks Flowers.

I know I said things would change by Christmas but I don't think I really believed it deep down. Thanks to everyone that helped make me stronger.

TheTombstonesMove · 11/12/2016 09:17

Wow RSL. That doesn't sound too pleasant for you to have gone through but well done for protecting your DD. Best of luck. Stay strong.

Naicehamshop · 11/12/2016 09:30

Well done. I followed your last thread and saw what a difficult situation you found yourself in. It sounds like you have been very strong - keep going and best of luck.

zznotxy · 11/12/2016 09:32

Brave girl, well done and the best of luck in the future.

user1471432735 · 11/12/2016 10:12

Well done. I'm very proud of you

DistanceCall · 11/12/2016 14:54

Well done, RedStripeLassie!!!!!

You should be so, so proud of yourself. You have done the right thing for your child.

galaxygirl45 · 11/12/2016 21:07

I can't imagine that any of this has been remotely easy for you, but I think you've done really well in putting your DD's needs before his. I hope you stay strong and manage to have a normal life with her. He's not worthy of either of you. I echo DistanceCall when I say I'm really proud of you.

BumDNC · 11/12/2016 21:10

Well done. I was on your other thread but couldn't get into my other account anymore
Hope you are ok.
Please talk if you need to talk about the practicalities of single parenting etc that you need to

Rainbowqueeen · 11/12/2016 21:12

Good job. I think of you and your DD often and I'm so happy to hear this.

It will be hard, especially over the first few weeks but in 6 months time I think you will be amazed at how different your life has become.

Wishing you every success and all the luck in the world

Greenifer · 12/12/2016 18:23

So proud of you, Red. Well done!

RedStripeIassie · 12/12/2016 19:30

Thanks for all your kind words. Without using MN as a stepping stone I'd never have made the actual leap to telling people in real life and then actually booting him out!

MrsDustyBusty · 12/12/2016 23:26

I hope you and your daughter have the peaceful and joyful Christmas you both deserve.

Onwards and upwards towards a new year!

VodkaLimeSoda27 · 12/12/2016 23:53

Good for you, Red. Have thought of you and your DD often. I hope you have a lovely Christmas

mrsaugust16 · 28/12/2016 11:03

Hope you had a good Christmas red x

RedStripeIassie · 28/12/2016 11:07

Thanks! I did. Very relaxed and child centred. I hope you had a good one too Xmas Smile.
