Dad has recently (finally) been found unfit for her to reside with him so my daughter is now in a refuge. I desperately want her home but with other young children in the house it is too dangerous as her behaviour is so extreme. I feel completely disempowered as a parent as I don't know how to help her in this situation. Dad still hands her wadds of cash and expensive gifts when she misbehaves to try and buy her allegiance but of course only reinforces her misbehaviour and undermines whoevers care she is in at the time. Is there anything us separated parents can do to help our children when they are not in our care and have another parent who indulges but refuses to discipline and plays the 'cool' parent for their own gratification?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31943569.post-21032566328743757992011-03-16T06:33:13.938-07:002011-03-16T06:33:13.938-07:00My situation is that during my separation/divorce,...My situation is that during my separation/divorce, my ex-husband did not behave properly and always said negative things about me to my girls and told them they had the right to choose who they wanted to live with. They inevitably “Disney Dad”. <br /> <br />As time has gone on, my ex and I are able to communicate again but I fear that the damage is already done when it comes to my daughters. The oldest is 17 and my youngest is 14. From the day they were both born, I was the disciplinarian.<br /> <br />If I were to buy your e-book, is it possible to help my daughters without their dads help? Even though we are talking now, he still continues to be the buddy and not the parent. Please don’t get me wrong, he is a good father but does not really understand what it is to be a good role model for our girls.<br /> <br />I sleep with my cell phone under my pillow for fear that I am going to get a really bad call in the middle of the night and I know that things should not be that way.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
