[QUOTE="DDD, post: 205237, member: 35"] My Ex is very much like your Dad. His indifference sent the oldest two easy child's to a shrink and as a result I forced myself to have a conversation with him explaining that they were teens and needed to know he loved them etc. It was all very softly delivered info making sure I didn't put him on the defensive. His response was he bought our daughter a watch and took her to DQ for a thirty minute visit. He never did reach out to our son. He honestly believes he is a "good Dad". :confused1: His fifth wife (yes, 5th) is a nice woman who has taken time to tell the children that their Dad "just can't be what they want" because ??? "he was an only child". They, like you, have adapted. It's a shame. DDD [/QUOTE]
