[QUOTE="hearts and roses, post: 455661, member: 2211"] [COLOR=#ff0000][SIZE=3]OMG - I forgot one of the biggest ones!!! When difficult child or easy child talk about their father as if he was ever there for them. easy child told me the reason she learned "Blackbird" on the guitar is so she could play it for her dad because that's what he used to sing to her at bedtime. Um, NO! MY H was the one who sang that to them at bedtime!! THAT is a BIG trigger for me because they have 'created' memories of him from their childhoods that were in fact me or H. Or the other day when difficult child told me her boyfriend called her biodad about visiting him and her dad later told gfgf, "I thought he was calling to ask permission to marry you or something"....well, that is also a HUGE trigger for me. First of all, this is 2011 - her boyfriend doesn't need to ask permission, especially from a parent who was absent most of her life, and least of all that particular parent. The thought of that man walking either daughter down the isle makes my blood boil. That anyone would give him cedence enough to even think of asking him for his daughter's hand in marriage just makes me freakin nuts! I am the one who did all the parenting!
