DD, 11 has had a somewhat difficult relationship with her Father. We separated several years ago, he is a difficult and toxic person.
As DD has got older she has seen who he is, after some particularly poor behaviour from him she wanted to stop seeing him. It's been a few months and she's not heard a peep from him.
She has a very anxious nature and although she says she's done with him, she is struggling that he hasn't used this lack of contact to reach out to her and make things up to her. He's effectively abandoned her and is not doing anything to make it better.
He's not a good person and I think she's probably better off without him in her life. I haven't made any contact with him and I don't want to mediate with him to get their relationship on track (he's abusive and I have grey rocked him for the last several years).
Anyone with any useful experience? Is it best to just leave as is or should I be making the effort to repair the their relationship even though he is clearly to stubborn to make contact with DD.
