I'm having a big party for my daughter (sweet 16 hall event) and her
father who hasn't been in her life for 12 years is attending, last time
she saw him was 3 years ago for 5 minutes.
How do I cope knowing this man is attending when he knows he has't been
a father to her and knowing he will be there watching everything?! He
confirmed he's attending the party never offered to pay for anything of
this party and I paid for everything myself.
I understand how hard for you this must be. However the bottom line is
you cannot keep your daughter from your father unless your daughter
doesn't want to see him. Your focus needs to be on your daughter and her
best interest. I am acrimoniously and bitterly estranged from my
daughter, but I never stop my wife/her mother from seeing her, as that
would make my wife unhappy and resentful.
Sometimes we have to put our own feelings aside for the sake of the ones we care about.
