Really getting depressed over some of these responses. Maybe I should just stop the DBusting. Kimmie is right, how do you get a person to notice any changes when they have completely stopped all contact even with the children.
The last thing that he did was send our D12 a card for graduation from elementary school back in June. She sent his Father's Day card and a letter asking him to at least write her back and that she loved and misses him and he never wrote back. Keep in mind that he only lives 15 min. away.
Is this the depression getting worse or does he just not love us anymore? I'm so confused. We have a hearing for our D's braces on Monday and if he shows that will be the first time I've seen him since May. Our D's counselor said maybe since he didn't go into the the last hearing when he was in contempt of visitation that he wasn't told that he could write her and call her. And to make him aware that he can.
Our D is blaming herself now because she told her counselor about him drinking and driving with her in the car, and that she was worried about him and the counselor had to report it to the courts. So he is either mad at our D or feels like a failure since his lawyer was so mad at him for not going to counseling and the drinking and driving that she dropped him as a client the following week. He made a fool out of her I guess.
Any suggestions that could help me get through to him at this hearing would be great.
