I really appreciate everyone's feedback. It has pointed out some things that I either forgot or was not aware of. Not that I'm ever guilty of looking at things onesidedly (is that a word??)
I think that more time and consideration are in order. If at some point I do send it, (thanks for pointing out the passive agressive tone Bill) I will need to re-write it.
While I agree that I have the right to point this out, I had not considered how he felt about coming here to visit and then leaving. Quite honetly (and sadly), I haven't thought about that in awhile. I needed the reminder, thank you bnd.
All in all I need to be grateful that he doesn't spew. And, while I can't say he's "stepping up" the way the girls need (working on differentiating between what they need and what I want), he is available to them as much as he's capable of emotionally and he's consistent physically.
