I know alot of us on here have the disneyland dads. Dads who cater to their darlings every whim, and refuse to discipline said darlings, refuse to enforce decency and respect in their darlings.

H, as many of you know, is one of the worst cases of disneyland dad.

I have watched H cater to SD17 like a waiter to a patron. He stood by and watched as she treated me like shite on her shoe-in my own home. He gave her anything and everything she asked for. When she would show up her, dressed like a hooker, he said nothing. When she showed up here, plopped herself down and expected to be waited on, he said nothing. He seemed to treasure having this 17 y.o. climb on his lap like a little child and snuggle.

When I suggested she help with the dishes, he informed me that "when SD17 is here, it's her down time. She works hard at school, and doesn't have to do anything when she comes here." When SD14 got new "bling" shoes, SD17 called him, bawling, because she didn't get any - tho she'd been given $100 for a new dress the month before. What'd he do-went out and bought matching shoes for himself and SD17. When she couldn't be bothered to show up in time for me to drive her to the dentist, leaving me waiting all day to take her to an appointment that was cancelled because we were late, did he have her apologize to me? No.

He made plans to weekends for the two of them-not only excluding me, but also not informing me. They had their little "secret society", which excluded SD14 and myself entirely.

I recall one particular weekend-we were aruging, before she came over, about her attitude towards me, her rude behaviour in my home (the prior weekend she had marced in the house, not one word to me, turned the airconditioner on high - I had all the windows open-laid out on the couch for a nap-not a word to me-then when she got up from her nap, looked at me and said WHERE'S MY DAD!-and that was all she said to me). So when she showed up the next time, dressed at her hooker best (lots of boobage-she doubles her pushup bras to she looks chesty, lots of cheekage =my new word)he pulls her to him for a full body hug-and smirks at me over her head.

We repaired the Mustang she drove that had holes shot in it. She of course claimed she had done nothing to anyone to merit revenge. When alcohol was found in her car he believed her when she blamed it on friends. When her MySpace page showed her as "lesbian" she again blamed it on friends.

When she made comments about her bf pulling the sheets on the bed over her head and farting, he made no comment. Didn't say a word-like...it's perfectly ok to have a boy in her bed! When he saw her MySpace photo-and that's all he can see as she blocked us after he saw the lesbian thing-with her 15 y.o. boyfriend licking her face, he said nothing.

There are a million instances I could write about-but this would be waaaay too long to go into them all.

So H is now reaping what he's sown. When he received the email with the link to the MySpace video, he got his eyes opened-for the time being. And her lack of any embarrassment, any remorse has him soooo upset. And when he called her on it, she made no response, just started screaming, again, about her car.

And now that money is so tight, and he's having to tell her no -like no to paying for a $360 prom dress, like no to paying $110 for a manicure and pedicure for prom-she no longer calls him. She has turned her back on Disneyland Dad because he can't indulge her every desire.

Well, what does he expect? He's never instilled any sense of modesty in her, never taught her to treat others decently.

So, Disneyland Dads (and Moms), guess what? When I land a job (should be very soon), H is out of a wife. It's not just over the money-if that was the only problem, well, money can be worked out, solved. Not easily, but it can be remedied. It's over the way he has treated me, and largely over the way he and SD17 together have treated me.

H has acted as tho she is the other woman, the preferred other woman, ever since we got married. Now he knows he raised a vicious, selfish, immoral daughter, and it's costing him his marriage.

For all of you raising young ones, married to Disneyland Dads, here's a peak at things to come. I never dreamed in my wildest imagination that saying "yes" when H proposed entailed accepting a place below H and Sd17.
