Can't go back to SM's thread... Nothin' I haven't thought. Nothin' I'd not have to fight myself against. For THIS MOMENT, I'll zip it, and not give in to what I'd LIKE to tell him to do, since it may sound like what I'd LIKE to do, but won't. GULP
Glad to hear about your co-parenting relationship. My D18's dad and I D'd when she was barely 2. We were separated for nine months prior to that, and I married my H when she was four, but she knew him since she was three. Horrible man to co-parent with, and in and out of court too many times to count. My H and D18 are quite tight. Luckily, she's had him... She hasn't seen or talked to her bio dad in almost three years. Once she didn't have to, she didn't. They had a blow-up, she cut him off, we tried to force her to at least put a band-aid on (in case it was teen drama), and move on w/a relationship w/him. WRONG thing to do. Should have stayed out of it. They had a worse blow-up. Told her we'd never force the issue again. She has erased it from her existance... at this point.

The average woman would rather have beauty than brains, because the average man can see better than he can think.
