[QUOTE="DazedandConfused, post: 285501, member: 831"] Ms. KT's Dad sounds EXACTLY like my Dad. In fact, if my Dad weren't deceased, I might think we are related. He even resided in Central California. If I had a dollar for every broken promise my father made to me, I would be wealthy. I would also have more jewelry and Daughter would have had her laptop. Actually, that was the promise that made me GO OFF. He made a promise to Daughter and she was struggling to understand why he wasn't making good on it. She didn't request it, he offered to purchase one for her.Of course, I was the one that had to explain to her the best way I could. She was so angry with him and very confused. For me, I grew up with it. She did not. Making promises to me is one thing, but to my child? Momma don't play that. I can also relate to putting on a pedestal. He was my Dad. I wanted him to love me so much. It wasn't until I was well into my thirties that I clearly understood that he simply wasn't capable of the fatherly love I so desperately wanted. I hope that Ms. KT realizes that long before I did. Hugs to you both. [/QUOTE]
