It's actually kind of funny that STBX was prompting daughter to ask for what she wants. During our marriage if I actually made such a suggestion to wife I would be met with looks of horror. I remember saying to her one time, in the midst of another argument about how I was supposed to magically know her every whim, desire and need without being told, "sometimes in life we actually have to ask for what we want from others. You're not a baby being breastfed her every need, you're a f....ing adult so why don't you start acting like one" Can't say that was one of my finer moments but...what is is!
