Bethie and any others whose childrens' dads have their heads up their rears:
I started the "Things for daddys and daughters?" thread with the hope of finding things for me and my daughter to do but also with the hope that maybe some mom's can share these ideas with their WAS's in a non threatening way, maybe even in a way that the dads would think these activities would be their own ideas. You know:
"Hey, S for brains, d was mentioning how much she would like you to take her to lunch and shopping one day? Don't tell her I told you; let her think it was your idea."
I have struggled on how to connect with my daughter and I proactively try to be very involved in her life. I can only imagine how challenged (their own damn fault) some of your WAH's might be in wanting to reconnect. Some may actually want to do something but are clueless.
I would also bet some are rightly feeling guilty and may even think thye have blown it way beyond repair yet I think we know that our children can be more forgiving than we can be, if these guys will take a step or two forward.
Just a thought.
