It doubly sucks as you had thought it out, asked for professional guidance in making the decision and made it from such a place of clarity only to have come back and hurt like that. <br /><br />I am glad the girls have you in their life, as a constant.

You are the one who has to deal with the fallout from his actions (or non-actions), you get to watch your kids hurt and he gets to reap the benefits when he DOES call. It's not right and if you were like a lot of mother's, you would say no more contact, EVER. But you are not like most mother's, you know that isn't the right approach and that it's important that they know their father, even if HE doesn't deserve it. <br /><br />I'm so sorry. I wish I could do something to help.Nataliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14456445574969644863noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4211674678201251588.post-23851483541481115232009-06-29T12:59:24.379-07:002009-06-29T12:59:24.379-07:00I wish I had even one answer that would make some ...I wish I had even one answer that would make some sort of sense, and NO answer that would make this okay in any way. And you will get thosew ho want to call you bitter, or a bitch, or tell you how unfair you are being, so let those roll off your back if you can. You are doing the right best thing for your girls. Sylvia is not to blame, Riley is not to blame, YOU are not to blame. All that falls right onto HIS shoulders, and unfortunately you are the one who has to deal with the fallout. I love you; and that is most likely the only meaningful thing I have said here....Korihttp://seekorirant.comnoreply@blogger.com
