I have been married to my husband for nearly 8 years and prior to that was with a partner who wasn't my daughters dad (he passed a way)
My daughter see her real dad once a month and he is a bit of a disappointment to her emotionally. Over the last 2-3 years the relationship between my daughter and my husband has deteriated so badly that she struggle to even say hello to him. She doesn't get angry to his face but is vile about him to me and my friends who have really tried to make her see that she has a really nice life.
When asked recently what she didn't like about his she couldn't think of anything other than to say he gets involved in things that arnt anything to do with him. He does back me up and doesn't think im strict enough with her. Recent events have proved though that me being nice mum is not working!
Has anyone been through this? do you think they might ever be friends??
