I agree Amy. She is 12 now, and can make a choice based on what she wants. I am going to wait til towards the end of the weekend before I talk to her because I do not want to feel like I am influencing her decision. If she wants to continue on the way it is, then that is fine, but if she wants to cut back a little of her time with him, that is fine with me too. Texas family law states that the kids can have input on the decision when they are 12.

I think that's good. Maybe she just needs a breather for awhile, or as resilient as kids are, maybe a weekend with mom will be the breather they both need.

Sounds like a good idea Lola. Give yourself time to reflect on it and calm down about it and D time to recover from his reaction.

Wow, that's horrible Lola.

((((((lola))))))))

Do what you have to do, but remember that anything is probably going to make him upset and you don't want your D's time to be miserable for whatever portion of time she is spending with him. Make sure that limiting the time isn't going to be worse for D.

Thanks Floyd. I know, I know D loves her Daddy, and I am not going to make any kind of decision without thinking it through first, and talking to D about how she felt. I want her to feel loved, no matter what.

So I sent a text to H regarding the above, asking if he rememberd the instructor. Told him that his band would be playing at our office party and ended it with small world lol. Did not expect a response, but got "yes it is".

Small step...
