Father not wanting to be involved

Do any of you have any advice on how to help my 15 yr old dd? Her dad and I split when I was pregnant with her. He has had very limited contact (his choice) until recently. He now refuses to reply to her text messages - he was upset because she didn’t message him on Father’s Day, so three weeks ago sent a message saying ‘bye’ and hasn’t been in touch since. He has blocked me completely and I really don’t know what to say to her. She is completely devastated. Advice gratefully received.

Wow what an immature little bastard. I can totally understand your DD being upset. Hopefully in time she’ll see that this is totally him who is at fault and nothing to do with her or how she’s behaved but it’s going to hurt like hell.

Sorry OP that’s no advice really is it? I’m just stunned that a grown adult can treat their child like this.

Crikey, no advice. But how sad for her. What an idiot of a person he is!
