(((jim))) sounds like time for a good old fashioned ass whooping

Ya, I'm a country girl... and I hate the tractor crap...

Sorry Jim, that sucks...does he have any kids?

I went thru this for many years. Your ex is the cause of the problem. It is she who exposes your daughter to this type of behavior. I never let any man feel like he had to be a father to my daughter. i just let him know that i wouldnt waste any bullets, if he didnt respect her. i also let her know he was still the man of the house, she was to go to her mother first, and then me if she had a problem with him. Its a long hard road, and even at 23, my daughter expresses saddness, because we didnt stay together as a family. Good luck. Its not easy.

well, dont let it get ugly... be the better person. I would suggest talking to your ex first with your daughter there and have your daughter explain that she would like to spend more time with her mom only on her weekends. And if she is so passive and wont stand up for herself and her daughter. Then talk to him, but approach him in a neutral way.

Some people get so caught up in the her and now...I wants, and selfish needs...they do not realize what they are doing....

I would say talk to her about how your daughter is feeling, she may not even realize she is excluding your daughter cause she is so lost in puppy love...

Good luck

Ya, after I read that...it is she that needs her ass beat... why would she sacrifice her daughters happiness for some guy?

I know you don't hit women... you want me, one mother to another to shed a little light on the subject for her?

Stupid b*tch....

Great now I'm all angry....

My daughter does still hold a lot of anger and confusion to us not being together. She somewhat understands but the "want" to have Mommy and Daddy together will always be there...He doesnt act like her Father in any way, he does respect me in that fashion and has told me himself he likes how I am as a Daddy and wishes he could be the same to his two boys...He needs to realize that now there is a little girl that is in his life and should accomodate to her as well.....

Jim just cause he has kids of his own...does not make him an involved dad

Getting there...we'll see how he reacts!

i know you might feel like beating him up but we are adults.just voice your thoughts to your x hope she takes into consideration.i'm betting if you be patient this guy won't last

Thanks Lily...yeah, he has two boys around the same age as my girl

KICK HER ASS LILY ......

Im not saying I want to get violent..I want to handle it civilly and like adults....A simple disussion

make sure you show him how to take your child to the zoo or any places where she would enjoy--

If you need a cheering section, call me I am close to you

Well, I will say he is involved in a "boy" fashion to his kids. They do boy things all the time...He coaches the football and baseball leagues....

I just dont think he knows how to accomodate a little girl, thats what we need to talk about

WE!!!!!! are the voices in your head........ you can tell the cops that one.........

rescue the daughter!!!

Thanks! But not worth your time hun..You would kill her

That's sad, and definitely needs to be pointed out to her. Your ex may be overcompensating to try to connect with him and his boys. I hope you get it straightened out for her! Good luck!
