[QUOTE="crazymama30, post: 59526, member: 3184"] My father is an alocholic (dry for over 20 years) but is still as selfish and self centered as ever. I do not think he was physically abusive, but maybe emotionally. I have never kept the kids from him, but he has never pursued much. He tried a few years back, bought presents for holidays and called every so often for a few minutes. Then we had a falling out again and all that stepped. My father is a slimeball, will always be a slimeball, and I refuse to waste my energy on him. If he wanted to see my kids I would allow it, but never unsupervised. Your difficult child is more emotionally fragile than mine (I think). I would weigh the consequences. How will she (they) react if all of a sudden grandpa is around and then he is gone just as fast? Good luck to you. This is a hard decision. [/QUOTE]
