You know Snodderly that's what I've felt for a very long time now. He seems to relate to my youngest the best, he's even more comfortable around her, and I think that emotionally they'e the same age.
He seems to be a bit stand offish from D13, because she's quite mature, more mature like an adult. She's also like her mother. She will tell it like it is when it's needed or her boundaries are stepped on.
The girls need to talk about their Dad alot. They're always frustrated. I listen, and encourage them to communicate with him. I tell them to use their words if he's upsetting them. I explain as simply as I can that he's just the way he is and we can't change it we just have to accept it.
It's emotionally taxing on me at times. But now I've just adopted this new attitude that I just don't care anymore about what he does, what he says, what he thinks, I mean it holds no water with me anymore. I do care how he treats his girls, but at the same time unless it's down right bad, Im even detatching from that drama.
I guess I finally just got so exhausted and worn down from it all I just don't care anymore.
