You are here

My Dad and SM were in town this weekend...........

And the visit went well. I posted a blog a bit back about my AS and my parents coming to visit. It was actually a nice visit and things turned out well. My AS is a lot better then she was last time she stayed (May 2014), with the help of her meds and therapy she is in. Most of the stuff she did during this visit that I found annoying was her just being a typical spoiled teenager.

I hope that DH noticed while my dad was here that:

I did not sit on my dad's lap.

I did not act jealous towards my SM.

I did not hang all over my dad.

I did not hold hands with my dad.

I did not comb my dad's beard or hair when we were out in public.

I did not ask my dad for money.

I did not call my dad "Daaaaddddyyyyy"

I did not ignore everyone else to focus 100% on my Dad.

I hope that DH also saw how well my SM and I get along. How we both treat each other with respect. How easy it can really be when both people are mature, kind, and want a good relationship with their father and SM.

Sadly, you are probably right. I spent the first year of my marriage hearing, "but so and so is exceptional."

No. Each one was a normal kid being raised by normal parents who think child rearing is not supposed to mean non-stop misery!

Not only did he not notice, he doesn't see that his kids have acted any differently than you acted with your dad & SM. Guaranteed.
