i say i dont care but i do.
My dd12 has been carted everywhere. Has spent countless hours at ball games, at performances, at open houses.
Do you think SS15 or SD20 can be bothered to come or even congratulate DD. Do you think either one contacted her on Facebook or sent her a text.
SD always told dh if she knew how she really felt about things he wouldn't let her see DD. Hmmmm......I always thought she meant she wanted to be involved as a sister.
Is this jealousy on their par. That she has "their" dad. (and yes hers as as well).
It makes me sad that they can't have a sibling relationship.

Dh was at every event of SD
Dh was at every event of SD and SS. Or a very large amount. He only missed when he was sick. And DD was carted EVERYWHERE to see their activity. If SS activity was at the same time as DD, DH went to SS I went to DD.
I won't say he's been perfect for the last 14 years. He chose to be the kind of parent he would have been had they lived with him (instead of eowe). Did we make mistakes sure.
Now that she wants them to come they don't. Ss hasn't seen her in 4 mo. Hes 15 and is allowed to chose not to be a part of our family. That's fine for him. I get the angry little girl who is hurt.
SD is now 20 and when she wants DD to.be available, she's supposed to be. But can't Facebook a congrats. Please......
They did everything they wanted to. Two parents or not.
Dd does have more opportunity that my odd19 and SD. I make more money, she gets that benefit. And because I'm working more DH does have more responsibility of her care.
Sorry, I miss the family
Sorry, I miss the family that was around 4 or so years ago. It makes me sad that they arent a part of her life. DD would wait anxiously for their arrival eowe. And it would be nice that they show to some of her things as well. Or just show interest in her. She loves them and doesn't understand why they aren't around.
Ss specifically asked her to come to his games last year.
She made 90%. And they live in a different district about 30 minutes away.
And while it would be nice for dh to talk to his kids about it:
SD20 pretty much just told him that she just wanted to be with him. That we did not blend.
SS15 will not visit on the weekends or any weekday visit that winds him back here.
My brothers and I were
My brothers and I were extremely close, even into adulthood we talked as much as our money allowed (long distant bills). My older brother and I talk all the time and we have been known to do dumb things like drive 5 hrs to spend two.
Cellphones has allowed us to no longer worry about long distant bills.
My dd19 is a freshman in college and attends DD12 things regularly. They have sister times.
Ss actually defriended everyone in this house on Facebook. It deeply hurt both girls.
Just wishing for a different outcome for my family.
